The India-Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Trade Council recently honored Dr. Majid Ahmed Talikoti, one of India’s leading oncologists, as the first-ever Honorary Health Commissioner during a formal ceremony in New Delhi.

In the presence of prominent diplomats, healthcare experts, and policymakers, Dr. Talikoti received the appointment letter, solidifying his responsibility to bridge healthcare solutions across India and the Gulf nations.

A Vision For Unified Health Strategies

In his address, Dr. Talikoti expressed his determination to foster collaboration between India and the Gulf nations in healthcare.

He emphasized that this role transcends geographical borders and serves as a platform to harmonize healthcare strategies.

As part of this vision, he outlined his plans for improving healthcare across both regions.

His focus includes enhancing preventive care, facilitating cutting-edge research, and promoting equal access to medical treatment across India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, and Bahrain.

In doing so, Dr. Talikoti aims to create a stronger, more interconnected healthcare system.

Moving forward, he plans to prioritize these areas to build lasting partnerships and ensure sustained growth in healthcare initiatives.

Ultimately, as he concluded, Dr. Talikoti remarked, “This is a bridge built on health, to bring nations closer.”

Global Recognition & Achievements

Dr. Talikoti’s appointment follows his recognition among ‘The 100 Most Influential Indian Muslims of 2024’ by the Muslim Mirror and the Healthcare Excellence Asian Arab Award in Dubai in 2025.

These accolades further underscore his significant impact in both the medical field and international health diplomacy.

For Dr. Talikoti, each accolade reflects a broader mission-his unrelenting pursuit of global health equity.

Moreover, these recognitions affirm his commitment to strengthening health diplomacy between India and the Gulf.

A Legacy Of Affordable Healthcare

Beyond his diplomatic contributions, Dr. Talikoti is the driving force behind Medicant Hospital in Bokaro, which offers top-tier yet affordable oncology services.

The hospital, a 600-bed facility, has become a beacon of hope for patients in underserved regions of India.

Dr. Talikoti’s commitment to making quality care accessible is evident through the hospital’s ability to slash treatment costs without compromising quality.

This model of care has revolutionized cancer care in Jharkhand and now inspires future Indo-Gulf partnerships that aim to make healthcare affordable and accessible.

Promoting Health Diplomacy Through Innovation

Dr. Talikoti’s appointment also highlights his role in advancing health diplomacy on a global scale.

By leveraging his expertise and leadership, Dr. Talikoti aims to establish a collaborative framework for healthcare innovations.

In addition to this, his efforts will drive forward transnational health initiatives, improving access to care and creating opportunities for joint research across borders.

As a result, Dr. Talikoti’s role as Honorary Health Commissioner will likely shape the future of health diplomacy between India and the Gulf nations.

Furthermore, through his leadership, these collaborative endeavors are set to strengthen ties and foster a more inclusive, accessible healthcare system across the region.

With this in mind, his ongoing work in oncology, combined with a vision to enhance healthcare collaborations, positions him as a key figure in global health initiatives.

Not only does he promote medical advancements, but he also fosters cultural and diplomatic ties through healing.
