| Indian Army conducts Medical Patrol | | | Early Times Report
RAJOURI, Dec 2: The Indian Army extended healthcare services to the remote parts of Rajouri through a mobile medical patrol at Potha, Rajouri. This initiative aimed to address the medical challenges faced by the local population, including Gujjar and Bakkarwals, who often face limited access to mainstream healthcare facilities due to their isolated geographic location and challenging terrain. The effort significantly benefited the community, contributing to their overall well-being and addressing disparities in healthcare, which often lead to higher morbidity and mortality rates. The mobile medical patrol, equipped with essential medical supplies and services, reached these remote areas to provide compassionate healthcare to local villagers as well as Gujjar and Bakkarwals. The primary objective was to offer on the spot medical care and check-ups, including basic health assessments, treatment of common ailments, and the distribution of necessary medicines. The team also emphasized preventive healthcare by offering immunizations and disseminating information on hygiene, nutrition, and disease prevention. The response from the local population was overwhelmingly positive. Residents expressed deep gratitude to the Army and civil administration for this initiative, which brought much-needed medical services directly to their doorsteps, with a special focus on women's healthcare. Beyond the immediate medical benefits, the mobile medical patrol played a crucial role in building and strengthening the relationship between the Indian Army and local communities. A total of 31 villagers benefited from the mobile medical patrol. |
