Aamir Khan shared his experience from Bhutan's visit in a video. The actor stated "Today, I heard many remarkable stories about how young mothers have been able to deliver healthy babies despite complications and challenges. This says a lot about the importance of having an efficient health care system with trained health workers in place, which ultimately plays a crucial role in saving many children’s lives. I have heard so many good things about the progress Bhutan has been making but there’s always scope for improvement and we are concerned about reaching every last child.” reportedly.
