Imphal, June 16 2019:
Relief Centre for the Welfare of Differently Abled Persons, Manipur in association with Saina Institute of Medical Sciences, Chinikon, Senapati District and Kanghuchingjil Khunou Youth Welfare Club have organised a one day free medical camp at Kanghuchingjil Khunou, Imphal East District with the objective to improve the basic healthcare services in remote area.
During the camp, the patients were also educated about various lifestyle diseases such as High BP, common disease etc.
Apart from providing necessary medical assistance, basic-know-how in health sector, hygiene and sanitation including dental hygiene was also imparted in the camp.
Many diseases were diagnosed and various medicines were also distributed at free of cost to the 160 patients besides treating sick patients especially from far-flung remote areas of the state during the camp.
Since the village lies at a distance of 15 Km from the Imphal city, far from the key town of Kanghuchingjil Khunou, locals suffer from various ailments that have been aggravated due to lack of proper medical treatment.
