Ferozepur, February 17, 2024: In view of the health problems of the people of the border area villages, a free medical camp was organized by the leading social service organization Agreed Foundation with the efforts of Dr. Satinder Singh and support of Harmony Medical College and Hospital at Government Health Dispensary Gatti Rajo Ke situated near Indo-Pak border.

Dr Satinder Singh, President, highlighting the achievements of the Agreed Foudation said that due to the polluted water and lack of health facilities in this area, such medical camps are proving to be a boon for the people and around 6 medical camps have been set up even before this after the floods in the area.
He said that in today's camp, more than 160 patients of skin diseases, respiratory, eye and allergy related diseases were checked up and 10 to 15 days free medicine was distributed.
Apart from this, the students of Government Senior Secondary School Gatti Rajo Ke were also specially made aware about health care and the health problems faced by them near the examination were solved on the spot and free medicines were also given as required.
Camp in-charge Narinder Singh and Arun Kumar thanked the entire team of social service organizations and doctors and said that due to the lack of awareness about health care among the people of this area, diseases increase rapidly, to prevent which such camps prove to be beneficial. He said that Agreed Foundation has also made available the daily required medicines for the dispensary.
Yugesh Bansal Director Harmony Medical College, Narinder Singh Community Health Officer, Praveen Bala, Asha Worker Jyoti Bala and Jaswinder Kaur, Arun Kumar, Baz Singh and school staff made a special contribution in making the camp successful.
