| IAF, Udhampur Admin airlift 2 critical patients | | | Early Times Report
Udhampur, Sept 6: In a swift humanitarian response, the District Administration Udhampur in collaboration with the Indian Air Force (IAF) today successfully airlifted two patients from the flood and landslide-hit region of Tehsil Latti-Marothi for urgent medical intervention. The two patients namely Shiv Lal, resident of Sira and Diwan Chand, resident of Latti — were in a critical condition requiring immediate medical attention. Due to incessant rains and multiple landslides, road connectivity between Tehsil Latti-Marothi and Udhampur remained disrupted, making air evacuation the only viable option.
On receiving information from the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Udhampur, District Magistrate Saloni Rai promptly coordinated with the Indian Air Force under the Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief (HADR) framework to ensure timely evacuation.
As part of the operation, one patient was shifted to Military Hospital (MH) Udhampur, while the other was admitted to Government Medical College (GMC) Udhampur for specialized treatment.
The District Administration has reiterated its commitment to ensuring that all possible assistance, including emergency medical support, reaches people stranded in remote and inaccessible areas due to recent heavy rains and landslides. |
