TURA: The Rangsakona PHC in West Garo Hills has been functioning without a doctor since August last year, the Garobadha unit of the A’chik Youth Welfare Organization (AYWO) has alleged.
“The absence of a doctor in the PHC which has been catering to residents of a vast area has not only affected the sick and the ailing but also the student community who are also facing difficulties in obtaining necessary documents like Birth Certificates which is mandatory to pursue their studies,” it said in a statement.
The AYWO demanded that at least two doctors are stationed at the PHC at all times. It also sought the appointment of a cook and a sweeper at the PHC.
