The Hindu
‘It is taking shape of a movement in Mithilanchal areas’
Members of a youth organisation in Mithilanchal area of north Bihar have began a campaign on social media to open primary and additional primary health centres (PHC) in villages owing to the spread of COVID-19. “In our areas in Mithilanchal, the primary and additional PHCs, wellness centres are shut. At some places, there is no doctor, while at others, the buildings are dilapidated. People have to walk 25 km to get the primary health support. So, we started a campaign #AphcChalukaro while making contacts and coordination with youths and our campaign now is taking the shape of a movement”, according to Aditya Mohan Jha who, along with friend Anup Maithil is associated with the Mithila Students Union (MSU). The campaign had forced several primary and additional PHCs to open with doctors and nurses.
