# Jhabua to host 3-day free health camp from October 7 2026-10-06T17:21:17+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Jhabua district in Madhya Pradesh will host a three-day free preventive health camp from Wednesday, 7 October to Friday, 9 October, at the Government Nursing College on Badkunda Road. Collector Dr Yogesh Tukaram Bharsat inspected preparations on Monday, 5 October, and directed officials to complete arrangements on time. Women and child development minister Nirmala Bhuria will inaugurate the camp. Specialists from Sri Aurobindo Hospital, Indore, will provide free consultations and tests for cancer, heart, kidney, neurological, gastrointestinal, orthopaedic, gynaecological, eye, skin and paediatric conditions. Free diagnostic tests include mammography, sonography, 2D echo, FibroScan, ECG and haemoglobin testing. The camp will run daily from 10 am to 3 pm. Bharsat reviewed registration, seating, drinking water, sanitation, patient movement and transport arrangements. He appealed to residents to bring their Ayushman cards. SDM Mahesh Mandloi and health department officials were present. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The camp brings specialist diagnostic equipment and consultants from a major Indore hospital directly to a tribal district, addressing a common access gap for rural populations. Free 2D echo, FibroScan and mammography are typically unavailable at primary health centres, making the three-day window a rare opportunity for early detection. The collector's appeal for Ayushman cards signals the state's push to link beneficiaries with the national insurance scheme, though patients without cards are not excluded. The camp's success will be measured by turnout over the three days, particularly for cancer and cardiac screening. ## Coverage - freepressjournal.in Straight event announcement with no framing slant This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
