Union Minister Pabitra Margherita Represents India at Papua New Guinea's 50th Independence Day Celebrations
Union Minister Pabitra Margherita recently visited Papua New Guinea to participate in the 50th Independence Day celebrations. During his visit, Margherita held several important meetings, including one with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
On September 16, 2025, Margherita met with Albanese in Port Moresby, the capital city of Papua New Guinea. The meeting was not mentioned earlier but a tweet posted by Margherita on September 17, 2025, included a picture of the meeting and was shared by the Ministry of External Affairs of India (MEAIndia).
Margherita represented Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the people of India at the commemorative events marking Papua New Guinea's 50th anniversary of Independence, at the invitation of their government.
In addition to meeting with Albanese, Margherita also held talks with Wesley Simina, President of the Federated States of Micronesia, on the sidelines of the celebrations.
A significant aspect of Margherita's visit was the launch of the 'Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar Abhiyaan' virtually from Brisbane, Australia. This nationwide campaign, launched by Prime Minister Modi, aims to organize over 1 lakh health camps across the country. The campaign is focused on preventive, promotive, and curative care, with a focus on strengthening maternal and child health, nutrition, and family well-being.
Margherita praised the campaign, calling it the largest health outreach for women and children in India. Under the campaign, Margherita plans to visit Community Health Centres (CHC) in Assam in the coming days.
The 'Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar Abhiyaan' campaign will run from September 17 to October 2, 2025. Margherita's visit to Papua New Guinea and his subsequent plans to visit CHCs in Assam are part of India's efforts to contribute to its health ecosystem.
The meeting between Margherita and Albanese, as well as the launch of the 'Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar Abhiyaan', were marked with the hashtag #PNGAt50 on social media. However, the specific details about the content of their discussions remain undisclosed.
In conclusion, Margherita's visit to Papua New Guinea and his subsequent plans to visit CHCs in Assam are significant steps in India's efforts to strengthen its health ecosystem and contribute to global health initiatives. The 'Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar Abhiyaan' campaign, which aims to provide comprehensive health care to women and children, is a notable initiative in this regard.
