DC B’la’s Directions Lead to Special Disability Certification Camp for Far-Flung Uri Areas

Baramulla : In a significant outreach initiative aimed at ensuring inclusive and accessible public services, a special disability certification camp was Tuesday organised at CHC Uri on the directions of Deputy Commissioner Baramulla, Minga Sherpa.
The camp was coordinated by the Chief Medical Officer Baramulla, Dr. A. G. Raina, with dedicated medical teams deployed to cater to specially-abled individuals from far-flung and remote areas of Uri.
Residents of these distant villages often face considerable challenges in travelling to district headquarters for essential services. Understanding this gap, the district administration brought the service directly to their doorstep, ensuring that beneficiaries could undergo on-spot medical assessment, documentation, and certification without unnecessary hardship.
During the camp, specialists from different medical fields evaluated cases related to physical, visual, hearing, and intellectual disabilities. The process was streamlined to avoid delays, with efforts made to ensure that no eligible person was left out.
Officials emphasised that the initiative is part of the district administration’s broader commitment to strengthening last-mile delivery and extending essential welfare services to every corner of Baramulla, particularly to those who need them the most.
The administration has further assured that similar outreach programmes will continue across remote and underserved pockets of the district to promote equity, accessibility, and timely service delivery for all beneficiaries.
