In a move to strengthen rural healthcare in Mawrong, Mawhati MLA Charles Marngar met with Deputy Chief Minister Prestone Tynsong on Thursday and submitted a memorandum seeking the upgradation of a Health Sub-Centre to a Primary Health Centre (PHC).
Marngar emphasised the urgent need for improved medical infrastructure in the area, citing the existing Community Health Centre (CHC) in Umsning is 17km away. The proposed upgrade would benefit over 12,000 residents in the area.
Tynsong assured Marngar that the matter would be taken up with the concerned department for necessary action.
