Now it is being held at the Falta Assembly seat. The Falta camp entered its second day today. Forty camps have been opened in Falta with 13,962 people being served till now. Free medicines were given to 11,596 people while 284 were referred for advanced medical care.
The people were examined by expert doctors. All the tests are done free and medicines are also given free-of-cost. If hospitalisation is needed that too will be done free also.
Long queues were seen in front of the registration desk since morning. The patients need to register their names and then they are given a unique identification number and a booklet containing the dos and don’ts regarding certain ailments. After Diamond Harbour and Falta, camps will be held in Satgachia, Bishnupur, Budge Budge, Metiabruz and Maheshtala.
There will be follow up camps for five days and all the constituencies are covered.
The initiative has received an overwhelming response from the people. People irrespective of economic status and political affiliation can visit the camps. The only criterion is the person will have to be a resident of that area.
