Shillong, Sep 17 : Eight years since it last had an ambulance, Nongspung Primary Health Centre in East Khasi Hills was assigned one through the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund.
This ambulance was inaugurated by Mawphlang MLA SK Sunn in the presence of Director of Health Services Dr Aman War and Nongspung PHC Medical Officer Dr C Kharbhih.
The ambulance was procured under the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund, which is provided to health centres on the request of MLAs, Dr War said.

Sunn said that the people living around the PHC had long-cherished an ambulance to serve the community but a paucity of funds had prevented one being issued to them until now.
