Karauli: A major healthcare initiative has been launched for the residents of Bhankari and Neendar villages, which fall under the Mandrayal tehsil of Rajasthan’s Karauli district. Sapotra MLA Hansraj Meena laid the foundation stone for new Primary Health Centre (PHC) buildings in both villages, with the ceremony held in Bhankari.
The PHC in Bhankari will be constructed at an estimated cost of around ₹1.20 crore. Once completed, this facility will provide local residents with access to essential primary medical care within their own area. Until now, villagers had to rely on distant hospitals for treatment, resulting in significant time and resource wastage. With the establishment of this center, even emergency medical care will now be available more quickly and efficiently.
MLA Hansraj Meena inaugurated the foundation stone ceremony with traditional rituals and prayers. He stated, “This building is not just a structure of bricks and cement; it represents a strong step toward better health and a more convenient life for every citizen. These villages, which have endured a lack of medical facilities for years, will now see a new ray of hope.”
Along with Bhankari, the foundation stone for a PHC building was also laid in Neendar village, ensuring broader access to healthcare for more residents in the region.
A New Chapter in Healthcare Services
With these foundation stones laid, the Mandrayal area is set to see a significant expansion in healthcare infrastructure. This initiative also reinforces the government’s vision of a “Healthy Village, Empowered Society.”
