Anaemia is a common ailment among women which effects up to 60% of women and 80-90% preschool children in our country but a majority of these cases are preventable or can be treated easily, improving the quality of life of the women and children in the society. With this aim, an Anaemia awareness Campaign was organized by the Army in the Army Hospital on the occasion of the International Womens Day which was attended by Mrs Madhulika Rawat, President AWWA and many medical experts from the Services.
