RAMBAN: District Administration Ramban today launched the three-day Intensified Pulse Polio Immunisation (IPPI) Campaign–2026 across the district.
On the inaugural day, MLA Ramban Arjun Singh Raju and the Chief Medical Officer administered polio drops to children at District Hospital Ramban, while Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Alyas Khan and ADC Varunjeet Singh Charak administered drops at CHC Batote.
Despite adverse weather, 56,302 children were immunised on the first day, 94.5% of the 59,530 children targeted, aged zero to five years, across the district.
The DC lauded the efforts of frontline health workers and other department functionaries and appreciated the ground teams who ensured extensive coverage despite rainfall on the first day.
The district administration established 425 vaccination booths, including nine transit booths, across the four medical blocks of Gool, Ukhral, Batote and Banihal. A total of 1,700 officials and workers, supported by 85 supervisors, have been deployed for the drive. Mobile and transit teams — comprising supervisors, teachers, health workers, ASHAs and Anganwadi workers — are engaged in implementation and monitoring, with focus on remote and snowbound areas. The campaign will continue for the next two days as per the district action plan for 2026.
