The medical camp was supervised by Dr. Arindom Ganguli of Sonari, under Charaideo district. A total of 46 people were medically examined, and free medicines were distributed to the patients as per the doctor’s prescriptions. The RKM is also tied up with a local clinical lab that provides services at minimal cost.
