Access to quality healthcare remains a major challenge for many vulnerable communities in India. To address this gap and strengthen community health services, the People’s Vigilance Committee on Human Rights (PVCHR) in collaboration with Janmitra Nyas (JMN) has undertaken initiatives aimed at improving access to healthcare and strengthening medical infrastructure in underserved areas.
As part of these efforts, PVCHR is organizing a free multi-specialty medical camp in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, while also supporting rural health facilities with essential life-saving equipment in Varanasi of Utatr Pradesh.
Free Multi-Specialty Medical Camp in Haridwar
A Free Medical Camp will be organized on 15 March 2026 (Sunday) from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at Central Library, Hanuman Ghat, near Har Ki Pauri, Haridwar, Uttarakhand.
The camp will provide free medical consultation and health check-ups by experienced doctors in several specialties, including:
Cardiology (heart diseases)
Urology
Pediatrics (child health)
Dentistry
Neurological disorders
General medicine
Several diagnostic tests will be conducted free of cost, including blood sugar testing, blood pressure check-ups, and ECG screenings. Additional tests such as cholesterol tests and EEG may be conducted on medical advice. Patients requiring advanced cardiac examinations will receive special concessions on 2D Echo and TMT tests.
This initiative aims to promote early diagnosis, preventive healthcare awareness, and accessible medical consultation for communities who often lack access to specialist healthcare services.
Strengthening Emergency Healthcare: Oxygen Concentrators for PHC Chiraigaon in Varanasi of Uttar pradesh
Earlier, on 12 March 2026, Janmitra Nyas (JMN) / PVCHR donated two oxygen concentrators to Primary Health Centre (PHC) Chiraigaon to strengthen community healthcare services.
The objective of this initiative is to ensure that seriously ill patients and those experiencing respiratory distress can receive timely oxygen support, particularly in emergency situations. Rural health centers often face shortages of critical medical equipment, and providing oxygen concentrators helps improve their ability to respond effectively to life-threatening conditions.
This support contributes to building stronger local health systems and improving emergency preparedness in rural healthcare facilities.
Contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
These initiatives contribute directly to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):
SDG 3 – Good Health and Well-Being: By providing free health check-ups, consultations, and strengthening healthcare infrastructure.
SDG 10 – Reduced Inequalities: By ensuring vulnerable and economically disadvantaged communities have access to healthcare services.
SDG 17 – Partnerships for the Goals: Through collaboration between PVCHR, Janmitra Nyas, medical professionals, and community institutions.
Advancing the Right to Health
Through community-based health interventions such as free medical camps and strengthening rural medical infrastructure, PVCHR continues to work toward ensuring that healthcare is accessible, equitable, and responsive to the needs of marginalized communities.
Such initiatives demonstrate how local action, community participation, and institutional partnerships can significantly improve healthcare access while advancing global sustainable development goals. 🌍🏥
