NEW DELHI: BC Jindal Foundation, the CSR arm of the BC Jindal Group, has launched a Sunday Clinic at the Meena Devi Jindal Medical Institute & Research Centre (MDJ), offering free outpatient consultations every Sunday across several medical specialties.
The initiative is aimed at people who find it hard to see a doctor during regular working hours, including daily wage earners, working families, students and senior citizens. Through the Sunday Clinic, MDJ aims to reach 2 lakh vulnerable people with specialist consultations and essential diagnostic services.
From dispensary to polyclinic network
Set up in 1981 as a local charitable dispensary, MDJ has grown into a multi-specialty charitable polyclinic network. It has conducted over 18 lakh consultations so far and served nearly 1 lakh people in FY 2025-26 alone.
Over the past five years, the group has contributed about ₹23 crore to healthcare initiatives through its foundation.
A spokesperson for the BC Jindal Group said, “Access to quality healthcare should not be limited by financial constraints or weekday work commitments. Through Sunday Clinic, we aim to make specialist consultations more accessible to underserved communities and help individuals seek medical attention without having to compromise on their daily responsibilities.”
₹43 crore CSR plan for FY2027
The group has planned a total CSR investment of ₹43 crore across India for FY2027, focusing on healthcare, skill development, animal welfare and nutrition. It also plans to strengthen its CSR presence in Delhi, West Bengal, Haryana and Maharashtra, alongside its existing projects.
Founded in 1952 by BC Jindal and led by promoter Shyam Sunder Jindal, the US$2.5 billion BC Jindal Group employs more than 10,000 people across India, Europe and the US. Its businesses span flexible packaging films, energy generation and downstream steel products.
