In Orissa, a pre-operative free medical camp was held.

Date: October 25 / 26 /27 – 2021

 Venue: Odisha

The three-day pre-operative medical camp was held in Malkangiri, a district in the state of Odisha. The villages of the three tribes of Malkangiri were picked. Salimi, Ananthapalli, and Chitrakonda. The camp was organized by the Navjeevan Community Development Society, Dr. Babitha Kallimel, two additional physicians, paramedics, and volunteers. The camp was attended by a total of 15 employees.

Ananthapalli Community (Kallimda Block), an inland village without any highways, served as the first location, but attendees came from there and other surrounding villages as well. More than 200 people registered. God enabled us to witness 196 individuals on the first day. 29 of them were picked for surgery. Approximately 500 people showed up. The food has been served to all of the camp attendees.

The second day was in Salimi Village (Mathili block), where at least 20 people arrived in addition to the 284 who had registered.  Thirty-four of those who arrived were chosen for surgery. There were 600 people in total who passed. Food was distributed to them too.

The location was named Janbai Village (Chitrakonda Block) on the third day. 304 people registered their names and fed the 600 people who showed up. Twenty-one of those who arrived were chosen for surgery.

Many people in and around the villages have benefited from this camp. We decided to schedule the four-day surgery over the next month.
