Around 2500 children and their families were benefitted through these four (04) Health Camps organised in March itself which not only targeted the school health of the students but also the hygiene issues and catered to the general medical issues of the local people on that day. OPD facilities were extended to the local people of the area. These initiatives were also another ‘firsts’ in these schools and was very much appreciated. In all these camps, Hygiene kits were also distributed among the school children and all the students were made aware through interactive sessions in Health, Safety and Fitness. This is for the first time that such an extensive CSR –Health Camp initiative is undertaken in the Pipeline Sphere

Buoyed by the success of these camps across Assam, Pipeline Sphere has planned to organise these awareness health programs every year along the pipeline operational areas across three states of West Bengal, Assam and Bihar for the greater benefit of the public and the school children. This year, 2018-19, it was primarily for the school health. This will be conducted under CSR project of Pipeline Sphere, Oil India Limited. One day before the CSR camp, a health talk was also given by Dr. Dipankar Bhattacharya, DGM-MS, PLS to the internal stakeholders that is the employees and their families in the Pump Stations, i.e. PS-3, Ps-4 & PS-6.
