The mobile dispensary will have a doctor and support staff to provide basic medical care to people, who either cannot afford or visit a hospital due to ill health/financial conditions, at their doorstep.

"This is a noble effort from RailTel and Sewa Bharati to provide medical facilities to needy people. There are a number of underdeveloped areas in Delhi which will be benefitted from initiatives like this," Angadi said.
