Swarnveer Singh Jaral in presence of Sh. Nishatar Singh, Sarpanch Keri, who emphasized the importance of accessible health services in rural areas.
Local coordination was key to the camp's success. Shri Sanjeev Anand, Senior Lecturer at GHSS Keri, coordinated the entire event under the guidance of School Principal, Mtr. Razia. Effective public mobilization was ensured by Shri Nishatar Singh, Sarpanch of Keri, whose efforts guaranteed a broad public reach for the much-needed services.Sharp Sight Eye Hospital Jammu deployed a highly skilled specialist team, including dedicated doctors, optometrists, and eye technicians, to conduct thorough examinations. Their team, featuring members like Mr. Rahul Kumar, Mr. Deepak Sharma, Mr. Ajay Kumar, and Mr. Zahid, worked tirelessly to screen patients for various eye conditions.
The overall organization and smooth functioning of the camp were attributed to the dedicated efforts of the core organizing team members, including Arun Rana, Sagar Hussain, Adil Khan, Reetu Baldotra, and Ms. Saraswati, alongside other committed volunteers.
"We are incredibly pleased with the response from the Keri community," said Dr. Rohit Koul, Director and CEO of People's Hut Foundation.
