Indian Medical Association (IMA) will be providing free medical facilities and create awareness about good health practices in the villages adopted by it under the 'Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana'.
"We have been directed by the IMA headquarters to adopt villages here which will be visited by a team of doctors once in a month.
"Free medical facilities will be provided to the villagers and a cleanliness campaign will be launched to make them aware of best health practices," IMA Vice President Dr Praveen Katiyar said today.
The people suffering from ailments will be admitted in the hospitals, he added.
Katiyar informed that IMA doctors will meet the district officials soon to adopt a village within every 25 kilometers in the city.
We are hopeful that the plan can be implemented within a month, he said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the 'Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana' last month for holistic development of villages in the country, inviting all MPs to select a village to develop on a demand-driven, rather than a supply-driven model, with people's participation.
