Highlighting tributes to his parents and inspired by Shri Narhari Amin's societal commitment, Shah discussed challenges posed by environmental pollution and modern lifestyle on health. Emphasizing the unaffordability of healthcare for many, he credited Modi for extending services to rural areas and fostered government-social organization collaborations for public welfare.

Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel aligned with Shah's views, attributing the growth in healthcare access to Modi's governance, mentioning the addition of AIIMS and medical colleges, and improving Gujarat's health infrastructure for remote areas.
