India doubles down on healthcare help for Afghanistan

India Dec 17, 2025

India just renewed its promise to support Afghanistan's healthcare needs.
At a meeting in New Delhi, Health Minister JP Nadda and his Afghan counterpart Mawlawi Noor Jalal Jalali talked about keeping the aid coming and working together long-term.

What's actually being sent?

India handed over cancer medicines and vaccines to support the medical needs of the Afghan people—and there's more on the way, including a high-tech CT scanner.
This follows a recent shipment of 73 tons of medical supplies sent last month, showing India's ongoing commitment to helping Afghans get basic care even in tough times.
