During this year we have treated 25285 patients in the regular clinics. Health camps as well as school health programme conducted in different Government school. This year we conducted 355 clinics on regular basis in 11 centers. The number of patients varies from clinic to clinic. In winter season the number of patients reduces because this season is healthy season. During winter people mainly suffer from asthma, Wheezing, bronchitis, pneumonia, arthritis, cough and cold. In summer season due to water pollution, flies, mosquitoes breeding heat and lack of personal hygiene, we find more patients suffering from skin diseases, diarrhea,dysentery, typhoid, heat boils, scabies and wounds so on. Besides regular clinics we also conducted 13 health camps, and school Health programmes. Health camps are conducted only in remotest villages especially where there are no medical facilities are available
