Bhojpur, Feb 25: A health unit has
been set up at Lungthung, a remote place of Bhojpur district.
The geographically difficult place,
Lungthung of Hatuwagadhi-4 in the district, got the health unit after a long
struggle. As many as 300 households will be benefitted with the health
facility.
Ward No 4 Chairman of Hatuwagadhi,
Chandra Bahadur Bista, informed that the newly established health facility
began providing services as well. It was set up with the initiative of
ward.
"Lungthung is a distant and
difficult place, so the people here were compelled to walk for long distance to
receive basic health services," he said, adding that the establishment of
the health unit brought cheers to the locals.
A local Tirtha Kumari Rai said they
were forced to walk for hours and some even lost lives for not having primary
health post. "It is easy for us to get the service now," she shared
happily.
Another Man Bahadur Rai also said
their days of hassles and difficulty ended with the establishment of health
unit.(RSS)
