What was started as a ex-servicemen helpline with assistance from North Star Air Defence Brigade has now matured into a polyclinic employing medical specialists and adequate staff.
The polyclinic which has started functioning from a temporary hired accommodation will eventually be shifted to a separate building which has been sanctioned by Ministry of Defence
