Among innumerable welfare initiatives taken by the ruling dispensation for the welfare of people of J&K, who right from the accession of the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir into the nation, were facing several hardships due to apathetic attitude of earlier governments and numerous other reasons, the provision of basic amenities at the doorsteps of people is on the top. There was a time when the people of J&K, especially those living in rural and far-flung areas used to suffer on various fronts with no one to listen to their grievances but it is the ruling dispensation which not only worked in a proactive manner for the welfare of masses but also took all possible measures to ensure availability of several necessary facilities to the people. It is really a matter of great satisfaction that the people of Jammu and Kashmir who at a point of time were craving for even basic healthcare services and used to travel long distances for getting medicines or treatment, are now enjoying the world class healthcare facilities in their area without travelling long distances. Where after the formation of the Union territory, decision to open a number of healthcare institutes was taken by the Government on the other hand it was also ensured that the existing facilities, which lack staff and other things, are provided all required things to serve the masses in an effective way. In this regard, taking a significant decision, the highest decision making authority of the Union Territory, the administrative council led by LG Manoj Sinha has given the final nod to the proposal for constructing a 100 bedded Mother & Child Health Care Hospital at Lamberi in Rajouri. This medical institute on completion will not only ensure availability of necessary medical services for expected mothers and infants but will also reduce the workload on the hospitals located in nearby cities. Moreover, opening of such a health institute will also open up a number of employment avenues for the locals thereby supporting the government in its fight against unemployment besides making the area centre of excellent medical services for numerous other adjoining villages and blocks.
