The video shot by Daniel Mate, IndiaUnheard correspondent from Chandel district of Manipur, inspired a local organization Burning Voices to donate a carload of lifesaving medicine for villagers who were in dire need of healthcare in a remote village
In May 2010, Daniel Mate’s video ‘Village Lacks Healthcare’ showed the plight of a village called Bongli, 10km from Tengoupal, Manipur which had no access to healthcare
Once this story was shown on IndiaUnheard website, Daniel was contacted by Ronid Chingangbam – a senior member of an organization called Burning Voices. Burning Voices is a Manipuri youth group which promotes contemporary art and literature.Follow the link to read the entire news here.
Ronid soon met Daniel with several cartons of medicine needed for the village, especially for pregnant women and children. Over 500 people benefited from the medical camp.
