The initiative is expected to benefit over 5,000 people, particularly from underprivileged and mining communities of Dhanbad and surrounding regions.
BCCL’s CSR initiative focuses on improving the overall health and quality of life of local residents and workers, ensuring early detection of diseases and promoting health awareness in coal mining areas.
A key partner in this noble cause, the RK HIV AIDS Research and Care Centre, was established in 1990 by Dr. Dharmendra Kumar. The NGO is recognized as the world’s largest non-governmental organization providing HIV/AIDS services. To date, it has conducted over 33,000 free health camps nationwide, delivering testing, consultation, treatment, medicine distribution, and surgical facilities to more than 6.75 crore patients.
Both BCCL and RK HIV AIDS Research and Care Centre have appealed to citizens to actively participate in the camps and avail the benefits of free medical services being provided under this initiative.
