Army holds medical camp at Nyerak
Srinagar, 02 Feb 2022. A Medical Camp for villagers of Nyerak was conducted under the aegis of Fire and Fury Corps on 30 and 31 January.
Located in the midst of Zanskar River Valley at 12,000 feet, Nyerak village remains cutoff in winter and is only accessible through the route over frozen Zanskar river involving a 36 Kms trek.
Brig Manas Chatterjee of Fire and Fury Corps led the team comprising of 22 Officers, Four JCOs and 14 OR including medical staff who carried adequate stock of medicines and basic diagnostic facilities along with them.
The medical camp saw an overwhelming response by the villagers, who thanked the Fire & Fury Corps and Indian Army for this generous effort in aid of the populace of Nyerak who are deprived of such facilities especially since the area remains cutoff during winters.(CNS)
