Health unit set up at Lungthung of Bhojpur

Kathmandu: A health unit has been set up at Lungthung, a remote place of Bhojpur district.

The geographically difficult place, Lungthung of Hatuwagadhi-4 in the district, got the health unit after a long struggle. As many as 300 households will benefit from the health facility.

Ward No 4 Chairman of Hatuwagadhi, Chandra Bahadur Bista, informed that the newly established health facility began providing services as well. It was set up with the initiative of the ward.

‘Lungthung is a distant and difficult place, so the people here were compelled to walk for long distances to receive basic health services’ said Bista. He said the establishment of the health unit brought cheers to the locals.

A local Tirtha Kumari Rai said they were forced to walk for hours and some even lost lives for not having primary health post. ‘It is easy for us to get the service now’ said Rai.  Man Bahadur Rai also said their days of hassles and difficulty ended with the establishment of health unit.
