Dr Chitwan Malhotra stated, As you know I am myself from the conflict region of Kashmir and have witnessed the first-hand tragic effects of what limited access to Health has on the forcibly internally or externally displaced population, I have made Universal Health Coverage, health for all, my top priority. If we are to remain true to the principles of the SDGs, and leave no-one behind, we must do a better job of getting health services to refugees and migrants. And when we say health for all, we mean, all. Including migrants, regardless of their status”.
