The skill to heal, the will to lead

THE WEEK India

|

October 05, 2025

India's greatest strength today is not only in her growing economy or expanding digital networks, but in the extraordinary potential of her people, especially her young. With over 65 per cent of our population under the age of 35, we are uniquely positioned to shape a future that is not just prosperous, but purposeful.

The skill to heal, the will to lead

Health care offers one of the most powerful avenues to channel this potential. When a young person is trained to become a nurse, a technician, a community health worker, or an emergency responder, we do more than provide a livelihood. We create a pathway to service. We strengthen families and communities. We build resilience where it matters most.

At Apollo MedSkills, I have had the privilege of seeing this transformation up close. Young women and men from Tier 2 and Tier 3 towns, many entering the workforce for the first time, are now integral to hospitals, telehealth centres, and mobile medical units. Their confidence grows with every life they touch. Their dignity deepens with every responsibility they shoulder. This is the quiet revolution that health care skilling makes possible.
