Madam President also lauded Arjun for being the pioneer for the young entrepreneur and empowering the start- up ecosystem in India. He also inspires youth to be job creators, not job seekers. Madam President also praised the company's efforts in creating an ecosystem of affordable medicines and thereby affordable healthcare to all Indians. They also had a brief discussion about Arjun’s vision of creating an affordable healthcare ecosystem especially for Cancer patients who require extensive treatment, and the cost of medicines are often a burden on the patients' families. Generic Aadhaar's pharma revolution has been instrumental in providing economic relief and a Real Aadhaar to all the families. Arjun Deshpande said, "It is an honor to receive appreciation from Honorable President Madam. We currently have over 2000 medical stores and hope to have a total of 10,000 stores across India within the next year and a half. At Generic Aadhaar, our mission has been to make healthcare affordable and accessible for 140 crore Indian citizens. In the last 3 years, we have reached out to the remote corners of India along with metropolitan cities to ensure the benefits of affordable healthcare are accessible to everyone. My mentor Mr. Ratan Tata has a dream of making India’s healthcare affordable and accessible and while realizing that, the support and encouragement from Madam President only makes our commitment stronger to create a country where medicine, which is a necessity, does not stay a luxury for few.”
