Reasi, DEC 25
In a compassionate endeavor to improve healthcare access in remote areas, the Indian Army organized a medical camp for the residents of Kalaban in the Reasi district of Jammu and Kashmir. This initiative aimed to provide essential medical services to underserved communities, ensuring that the healthcare needs of the local population were met.
The camp witnessed enthusiastic participation from villagers of Kalaban and neighboring areas, who availed themselves of free medical check-ups and consultations.
A team of medical professionals, including doctors and paramedics, extended their services to address a wide range of health concerns. Alongside consultations, free medicines were distributed to patients, alleviating the financial burden of purchasing necessary treatments.
One of the key highlights of the camp was the emphasis on preventive healthcare. Attendees were educated on basic hygiene practices, the importance of a balanced diet, and methods to prevent common illnesses. By equipping the locals with knowledge about preventive measures, the Indian Army aimed to empower them to take proactive steps toward maintaining their health.
The initiative was widely appreciated by the beneficiaries, many of whom have limited access to healthcare facilities due to the region’s challenging terrain. Residents expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the Indian Army for organizing the camp and addressing their medical needs. This medical camp is part of the Indian Army’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its bond with local communities and contribute to their welfare. By addressing critical needs such as healthcare, the Army reinforces its role not just as a defender of the nation but also as a pillar of support for the people in remote and underserved areas.
The success of the event has inspired discussions about organizing similar initiatives in other areas to ensure sustained healthcare outreach.
Through such efforts, the Indian Army continues to make a meaningful impact on the lives of the local population, fostering goodwill and trust. The medical camp at Kalaban serves as a testament to the Army’s commitment to community welfare, highlighting its dedication to enhancing the well-being of the people it serves.
