New Delhi, May 4:
In a major recognition at UDFCON 2025, Dr. Lakshya Mittal, National President of United Doctors Front (UDF), was conferred the prestigious Dr. B.C. Roy Memorial Honour Award by Union Minister Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya at the Constitution Club of India.
Calling him one of his “favourite youth doctors,” Dr. Mandaviya lauded Dr. Mittal’s dynamic leadership since his stint as Union Health Minister and praised his consistent efforts to bring India’s medical fraternity together for systemic reforms.
Dr. Mittal, who also served as the Organising Chairman of UDFCON 2025, was honoured for steering national conversations on key healthcare issues—from the Central Residency Scheme and NEET exam integrity to the mental health of medicos.
His push for Tobacco-Free and Obesity-Free Bharat campaigns under the Fit India Movement also earned wide applause.
Top dignitaries including Prof. (Dr.) B.N. Gangadhar, Chairman of the National Medical Commission, and Dr. B. Srinivas, DDG (ME), Health Ministry, hailed the UDF’s policy drive and Dr. Mittal’s growing influence in shaping medical reforms.
The conference drew doctors, legal experts, students, and policymakers from across the country, concluding with key honour presentations and release of reform policy drafts.
