We appreciate the efforts of Nayati Healthcare for partnering with us in this initiative.  They have been working in pilgrim areas through MMUs and trained staff and understand the medical needs of the pilgrims. Typically it has been seen that the pilgrims tend to suffer from ailments like joint pain, vertigo, fever, diarrhea, headache, heat stroke well as respiratory congestion and having a setup within the premise which can ​ stabilise the patient will be beneficial for the pilgrims and locals”.
