National Helath Portal not in Telugu

National Health Portal (NHP) is the portal designed, developed and hosted by Centre for Health Informatics (CHI), set up at National Institute of Health and Family Welfare (NIHFW), by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), Government of India.

The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India has set up the National Health Portal in pursuance to the decisions of the National Knowledge Commission, to provide healthcare related information to the citizens of India and to serve as a single point of access for consolidated health information. The National Institute of Health and Family Welfare (NIHFW) has established Centre for Health Informatics to be the secretariat for managing the activities of the National Health Portal.

Goal of this portal is “Gateway to authentic health information for all”, but the portal gives information in few languages like English, Hindi, Gujarathi, Bangla, Tamil and Punjabi and ignores 3rd largest spoken language in India that is Telugu. It is also a dominant language of southern part of India and spoken in more than one state with 10 crore speakers.

We request and demand you to implement the portal in Telugu language also to disseminate authentic health information to all Telugu known people of India for better reach of your Department Goal.
