CCL & NCL to provide support life-saving surgeries for children with Congenital Heart Disease under the Nanha Sa Dil initiative.
Central Coalfields Limited (CCL) and Northern Coalfields Limited (NCL) have partnered with the Sri Sathya Sai Health & Education Trust to launch the “Nanha Sa Dil” initiative. This project focuses on providing life-saving surgeries for children suffering from Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). Launched on March 7, 2024, the initiative has already saved over 250 lives and is expanding its reach through CCL, NCL, and SECL to benefit more children across multiple states.
The initiative aims to screen a total of 62,250 children. CCL will screen 45,000 children in Jharkhand, while NCL will conduct 345 camps to reach 17,250 children in their operational areas. Through the partnership with SSSHET, the project will leverage their expertise in pediatric cardiac surgeries. NCL will conduct screenings, with children in need of treatment referred to a dedicated diagnostic center at NCL Bina Hospital for analysis and further care.
The MoUs were signed in the presence of senior officials, highlighting Coal India Limited’s (CIL) commitment to impactful CSR initiatives. With the support of the Ministry of Coal (MoC), CIL and its subsidiaries are dedicated to improving India’s healthcare landscape. The “Nanha Sa Dil” initiative reflects a commitment to transform lives, with a goal to save over 2,000 lives in the next three years, demonstrating a significant milestone for a Public Sector Unit in India.
