communities. The community engagement primarily deals with the practice of moving
communities toward change, from either a stalled or similarly suspended position.It enables
the health care services to be delivered in an equitable, acceptable and better organized
manner bringing more people into the umbrella of better health care. It helps in building social
capital-ties, network and support which can be used in providing and sustaining the health
care services.
General health camps are being conducted regularly to provide medical relief and referral
services to all these residents along with the available specialist doctors, a medical officer and
a dentist accompanies to the camp site and the CRRIs, Post graduates, and the Medico-social
