Assam Rifles organised a mega specialist medical camp at Tengnoupal High School to provide accessible healthcare to remote and underserved areas of Tengnoupal District. Conducted under the Operation Sadbhavna initiative, the camp featured a team of specialised doctors from the Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), who offered comprehensive consultations in Ophthalmology, General Medicine, Paediatrics, Gynaecology, Dentistry and Orthopaedics. The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from approximately 2000 local civilians who received examinations, preventive healthcare counselling and free medicines. The participation of specialists from the Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) facilitated high-level intervention across several key medical disciplines. A significant number of women and children received specialised consultations in Gynaecology and Paediatrics, which ensured that these vulnerable groups were provided with vital supplements and diagnostic advice.
In the fields of Ophthalmology and Orthopaedics, the team treated numerous elderly residents for age-related vision impairment and musculoskeletal issues often exacerbated by the rugged terrain. Furthermore, the Dentistry section provided essential procedures while counselling patients on preventive oral care, offering a service that is rarely accessible in these underserved areas. A large contingent of 65 officials and troops ensured the smooth execution of the camp through efficient coordination and logistical support. Local civil society organisations noted that the initiative provided modern healthcare facilities to marginalised border villagers who are generally devoid of such services, particularly benefiting women and children. This camp is part of a consistent series of mega civic action events organised by Assam Rifles to support civilian welfare and accessible healthcare across the region.
