DODA: A Village Health and Nutrition Day (VHND) camp was organized today at Anganwadi Centre Gurekhra (A), Block Bhalessa, Gandoh. The primary objective of the camp was to create awareness among the local population about the prevention and early management of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), which are becoming increasingly common due to sedentary lifestyle and poor dietary habits.
Through interactive sessions, participants were educated about lifestyle modifications, stress management, and the importance of routine health monitoring to prevent ailments like hypertension, diabetes, and obesity.
Later, a general health check-up was conducted for the beneficiaries, with special emphasis on promoting a balanced diet, personal hygiene, and immunity-building practices. The AYUSH team also provided health counselling and highlighted the significance of traditional Indian systems of medicine for preventive care and overall well-being.
A total of 28 beneficiaries availed the services of the camp. The initiative was appreciated by the local community for its focus on health education and accessible care at the grassroots level.
The camp was held in line with the directions of the Deputy Commissioner Doda Harvinder Singh and Director AYUSH J&K UT, Dr. Nuzhat Bashir Shah and under the supervision of District AYUSH Officer (DAO) Dr. Ajay Kumar Tikoo. The staff of AAM (Ayush) Gurekhra provided the services.
