Three-Day Training Camp for Community Health Volunteers Concludes in Udaipur

Udaipur: A three-day training camp for Arogya Rakshaks (Community Health Volunteers) working in tribal areas concluded at the provincial office of Vanvasi Kalyan Parishad Rajasthan. The programme was conducted under the guidance of specialist doctors and subject experts to strengthen primary healthcare services in remote tribal regions.

Dr. Rajesh Malik, Provincial Head of the Medical Wing and a renowned pediatrician, said the training focused on identifying and managing seasonal diseases commonly affecting tribal communities. Each Arogya Rakshak is provided with a medical kit containing essential medicines to ensure immediate primary care for patients. They also assist patients in reaching the nearest Primary Health Centre (PHC) for further treatment whenever required.

Dr. Malik added that these trained volunteers play an important role in reporting outbreaks of seasonal illnesses from remote tribal villages. Based on the information they provide, medical teams organize health camps in the affected villages and hamlets to ensure timely diagnosis and treatment.

Addressing the valedictory session, Virendra Pancholi, General Secretary of Vanvasi Kalyan Parishad Rajasthan, said the organization is committed to the holistic development of tribal communities and has established a strong presence in the field of healthcare. He noted that Arogya Rakshaks are playing a vital role in delivering essential health services in remote forest regions, and their efforts are widely appreciated by local communities.

The programme was attended by Sajjan Singh, Secretary of Vananchal Shiksha Samiti, Co-Secretary Kunj Bihari, medical experts Dr. Lalit, Dr. Ramlal, along with Ramesh, Om, and several volunteers and community members.
