Health & Awareness Camps
The Facilities
The Old Cemetery
The hospital was converted into a Central Hospital in 1989. Under the leadership of Dr J.N. Karmakar, a Cataract Camp
was organised, and from a screening of 190 cases, 160 cases were selected from among people of the estate and the
neighbouring villages for successful operations at the Sankardev Netralaya, Guwahati. A Laparoscopic Sterilization Camp
too was held and 141 cases were operated upon. Awareness camps on leprosy and tuberculosis have greatly benefitted the
workforce and local residents.
This well equipped hospital has a diagnostic centre catering to patients from the nearby villages as well. Awareness
campaigns on health and sanitation have resulted in a reduction of mosquito-borne diseases, thus contributing to the
health and welfare of the workers.
