New Delhi, May 31 (IBNS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday approved the proposal of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare for enhancing the age of superannuation of all doctors of the Central Health Service to 65 years with effect from May 31.

Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare J P Nadda stated that this step will empower the Government to strengthen the healthcare sector in the country.

It will help in providing additional doctors in the health pool of the country, he added.
