The manifesto highlights promised that knee surgery would be included under the Aarogyasri health insurance scheme. The government did enhance the Aarogyasri cover and add procedures after taking office, but no approved-source evidence was found specifically confirming that knee replacement or knee surgery was added to the list of covered procedures as of July 2026. Absent a specific approved-source confirmation of this procedure's inclusion, the verdict is pending. Budget: no approved-source figure isolating spend on knee surgery coverage was found.
