In the month of June and July 2020, devastating floods created havoc in most of the parts of Assam. People who are living near Brahmaputra River had to take shelter in the relief camps. Because of the Covid 19 situation this year, they had to suffer more as the entire machinery is busy in Covid 19 activities.

A free cataract surgery (PHACO) surgery was conducted at Tinsukia civil Hospital, Tinsukia, Assam on 17th and 18th February 2020 by Vivekananda Kendra Kanyakumari. This camp was conducted in association with District Blindness Control Society,

This is to be mentioned that the free surgery camp, organized by Vivekananda Kendra Kanyakumari in Arunachal Pradesh and Assam completed 12 years and till date 1007 poor and needy patients were successfully operated.

This is to be mentioned that Dr. Vinay Gowardhan, an octogenarian Doctor from Nagpur donated the device for the needy patients of Arunachal Pradesh. The induction of this laboratory with the latest technology will definitely boost up the existing mobile medical facilities being rendered by Vivekananda Kendra Arun Jyoti in the eastern part of Arunachal Pradesh since last two decades.

This is to be mentioned that this is the fourth such camp in this financial year and we operated a total 96 patients successfully. We have a target of 200 surgeries by March 2020.  

In August 2018, the Mobile Medical Team of Vivekananda Kendra Arun Jyoti visited Wakka for Medical Camps. Our Nagar Sanyojak, Sri Saikhang Sir informed us about an eight years old boy, Kr Danggang Gangsa of Wakka village. Wakka is in Longding Dist of Arunachal Pradesh, about 90 Kms hill track from Dibrugarh which takes around 5-6 hrs with own vehicle and more than 12 hrs by Govt bus.

A team of five Doctors and one OT Sister under the leadership of Dr. Pradeep Kumar PS (MENTS Hospital, Bengaluru) rendered their valuable service voluntarily during the free camp.

To get medicines to conduct the camps, we appealed Dr. Mahesh Singhvi of Mumbai. Their organization, Hari Om Group always helps the people suffering from natural calamities and they helped us in previous occasions also. He immediately responded and helped us to procure medicines within two days.
