Jul 18, 2022

Sonamarg (J&K), July 18 (ANI): Patients appreciated the government for constructing a new Defense Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) Hospital at Baltal base camp in Sonamarg of Jammu and Kashmir. It was recently inaugurated by Lieutenant Governor of J&K Manoj Sinha. It aimed to provide health care with all the facilities for pilgrims and other people associated during the Amarnath Yatra. The government had already established a small hospital at Baltal base camp a few years back, but the capacity of that hospital was limited and it was not equipped enough to take care of all the patients during Amarnath Yatra. Hence, the government has constructed a new hospital in a short span of time for the pilgrims. It has good number of beds with proper oxygen facilities and the government is also providing all test facilities including X-Rays, Ultrasound, ECG, at free of cost. With the help of government, patients are getting proper treatment at the new DRDO Hospital.
