Minister Yogi Adityanath. The Chief Minister Teacher Cashless Medical

of India and the Basic Education Department will be widely publicized at these

programs so that as many teachers and employees as possible can become aware of

this initiative. All District Basic Education Officers have been instructed to

coordinate with local State Bank of India officials and ensure their

participation in district-level programs. Effective publicity should also be

provided regarding the objectives and benefits of the MoU.
