The District Legal Services Authority (DLSA) Srinagar took significant steps to prioritize senior citizens’ health during the observance of Legal Services Week by organizing a comprehensive medical health check-up camp at Ahata-e-Waqar Chanapora, Srinagar. The initiative was spearheaded by Chairman Jaffer Hussain Beg and meticulously supervised by Secretary Nusrat Ali Hakak, reflecting the organization’s commitment to community well-being and healthcare accessibility. The medical camp was specifically aimed at providing essential healthcare services to financially constrained individuals, with a particular focus on the local senior residents who often face challenges in accessing adequate medical care.
Healthcare accessibility was a central theme of the event, as the camp offered a range of medical services free of charge. Senior citizens were provided with medical opinions, medicines, Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs), and physiotherapy sessions, ensuring that they received well-rounded healthcare attention. This initiative highlighted the importance of accessible healthcare services, aiming to improve the quality of life for the elderly population in the region. Many senior citizens benefitted from the camp, receiving essential health check-ups and medicines without any financial burden.
The event was a testament to the DLSA’s dedication to serving the community’s needs, especially those who may not have the means to seek regular medical attention. The successful execution of the camp underscored the significance of such initiatives, which not only address immediate health concerns but also foster a sense of community support and care. By ensuring that senior citizens in the locality received the medical attention they needed, the DLSA demonstrated a commitment to the holistic well-being of the community, embodying the true spirit of Legal Services Week.
