Bharatiya Janata Party · Gujarat Legislative Assembly Election 2022
Last updated 18 Oct 2026
What does this status mean?
Implementation is progressing towards the commitment.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will ensure the availability of quality medicines at subsidised rates by expanding the network of Pradhan Mantri Jan Aushadhi Kendra from 500 to 1,000 in towns and cities to bring down out-of-pocket expenditure.”
Our Assessment
A parliamentary reply records 955 Jan Aushadhi Kendras opened in Gujarat as of 30 June 2026, close to the promised network of 1,000. This supports substantial progress toward the numerical target. The count is statewide and describes opened outlets; it does not independently establish every outlet's current functioning, an exclusively urban network or the reduction in household medicine spending.
