A 'Jaanch Evam Upchaar Chikitsa Aapke Dwar' (Investigation and Treatment Medical Services at Your Doorstep) campaign has been launched in Supaul district on Wednesday to prevent, timely diagnose, and treat non-communicable diseases (NCDs). This significant health initiative will run until November 30, 2026, aiming to identify and provide timely treatment for NCDs like diabetes, hypertension, various cancers (oral, breast, cervical), asthma, COPD, fatty liver, and heart diseases in individuals aged 30 and above.

Under this campaign, special health programs will be organized at Sadar Hospital Supaul, Sub-Divisional Hospitals वीरपुर (Veerpur), निर्मली (Nirmali), and त्रिवेणीगंज (Triveniganj), along with Referral Hospital राघोपुर (Raghopur). The Health Department aims to raise awareness among people about recognizing early symptoms of diseases, undergoing regular check-ups, and adopting a healthy lifestyle. ASHA workers have been tasked with filling Community-Based Assessment Checklists (CBAC) and diet-related checklists at the community level. Through this, people's health will be assessed, and they will be directed to health centers for necessary investigations and treatment.

During the program, emphasis is also being placed on the importance of a balanced diet, daily exercise, and an overall healthy lifestyle. The inaugural ceremony at Supaul Sadar Hospital was attended by Nagar Parishad Supaul Chief Councilor Raghavendra Jha, District Magistrate Sawan Kumar, Civil Surgeon Dr. Babu Saheb Jha, Dr. Anand Shankar Prasad Sinha, ACMO Dr. Mamta Kumari, NCDO Bal Krishna Chaudhary, DPM Shashibhushan Prasad, District Monitoring and Evaluation Officer Abhinav Anand, and Hospital Manager Dr. Alka Kumari, along with several healthcare workers.
