Honda ZR-V India Launch soon: Five things to know . NEW DELHI: In a major policy shift, the Centre will now screen all children from birth to 18 years for diabetes and provide free, lifelong treatment through the public health system, expanding its flagship Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram (RBSK) to address a growing burden of the disease in younger age groups.The guidance document, released by the Union health ministry at a national public health summit, lays down a structured national framework for screening, diagnosis, treatment and long-term management of childhood diabetes. It integrates community- and school-based screening with district-level care, aiming to ensure early detection and continuity of treatment.The rollout is part of the Centre’s revamp of RBSK 2.0, which adopts a lifecycle approach from birth to 18 years and expands its “4Ds” framework to include non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, along with mental health and behavioural conditions.

Suspected cases will undergo immediate blood glucose testing and be referred to district NCD clinics for confirmation and treatment.The move comes amid growing concern over diabetes in younger populations. While Type 1 diabetes remains the most common form in children and requires lifelong insulin, the document notes a rise in Type 2 diabetes among adolescents, driven largely by increasing obesity and sedentary habits.Experts say prevention will be critical. “Obesity among children has risen sharply, and with it we are seeing more diabetes. Lifestyle changes need to begin early, especially at the school level, as habits formed in these years shape long-term health. Strengthening school-based health programmes and ensuring consistent implementation will be key,” said Dr Jugal Kishore, Director Professor and former Head, Community Medicine, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital.District hospitals have been positioned as the backbone of care, offering a comprehensive free package that includes diagnostic services, lifelong insulin therapy, glucometers, test strips and regular follow-up. The programme also includes counselling and training for families on insulin use, monitoring and emergency care.The framework links early detection with advanced care, with standardised treatment to prevent complications. Officials said timely diagnosis enables normal growth and better outcomes. The initiative aims to reduce mortality, ease financial burden and ensure uninterrupted care, with focus now on implementation.Follow the latest election results 2026, live updates, winner lists, constituency-wise results, party-wise trends and full coverage for Tamil Nadu election results, West Bengal election results, Kerala election results, Assam election results and Puducherry election results results on Times of India.About the AuthorAnuja JaiswalAnuja Jaiswal is a Senior Assistant Editor at The Times of India, with an impressive 18-year career in narrative journalism.

BJP’s vote share rose to 35.2%, signalling a growing presence.Banerjee later returned to contest the Bhowanipore bypoll, winning by 58,835 votes and securing her third term as CM.The electorate in Bhowanipore has also undergone changes, with 41,068 names removed from the rolls, reducing the voter base by around 20% to about 1.6 lakh. An analysis by Souptik Halder, along with Ashin Chakraborty and Sabir Ahamed, found that 56.7% of voters flagged under the ‘under adjudication’ category are Muslims, compared to their 20% share in the constituency’s population as per the 2011 Census.Earlier findings had shown Muslims accounted for 22.7% of voters marked as ‘Absent, Shifted, or Dead/Duplicate’ (ASDD), with the ‘unmapped’ share at around 26%, roughly in line with their population share. However, this rose sharply to 52% in the ‘logical discrepancy’ list.According to Chakraborty, despite Bhowanipore being a mixed-community constituency, Muslims are disproportionately represented among those under scrutiny. Halder added that booth-wise analysis of 2021 and 2024 data suggests that if voters under adjudication are unable to vote, the TMC’s winning margin could drop significantly, and in some booths even disappear.Follow the latest election results 2026, live updates, winner lists, constituency-wise results, party-wise trends and full coverage for Tamil Nadu election results, West Bengal election results, Kerala election results, Assam election results and Puducherry election results results on Times of India.About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.
