In a significant development towards improving the public health care sector in Baramulla, recently District Administration Baramulla has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the National Hydroelectric Power Corporation (NHPC).
This collaboration, under NHPC’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative, aims to enhance healthcare facilities in the district by funding and implementing key projects in the health sector.
As part of this agreement, NHPC has committed to fully funding key projects that address pressing healthcare needs in Baramulla. Among the initiatives is the installation of a high-capacity DG set at the PHC Mohura, ensuring uninterrupted power supply and enabling round-the-clock medical services.
Another vital project under this collaboration is the provision of a state-of-the-art 4×4 ambulance for the Primary Health Centre in Boniyar. This vehicle, equipped to navigate the district’s challenging terrain, will ensure timely medical assistance in remote and hilly areas, improving emergency response times and saving lives.
Additionally, the partnership includes the establishment of a fully equipped dialysis centre at the Government Medical College in Baramulla. This facility will cater to the needs of patients suffering from kidney ailments, eliminating the need for long-distance travel to access specialized treatment.
