In the last 24 hours, Punjab’s health camps treated a total of 13,318 patients through 1,035 camps. These included 1,423 patients with fever, 303 with diarrhea, 1,781 with skin diseases, 811 with eye-related problems, and several others with different illnesses. This is proof of the government’s medical system being alert and ready in the face of rapidly spreading diseases. The health camps not only provided treatment but also set a new example in disease tracking and better management.
On the issue of damaged homes and displaced people, ASHA workers surveyed 1,079 villages and provided relief material, shelter, and essential support to 46,243 families. Around 12,524 families were also given special health kits to meet their vital daily needs. A total of 863 fever patients were given immediate treatment, which helped control the risk of large-scale outbreaks in time.
In the direction of reconstruction too, the government has shown remarkable speed. Government agencies ensured cleaning in 1,363 villages, sanitation of 49,806 homes, and immediate removal of debris/waste from 624 houses. Repairs and cleaning work in another 15,368 homes was also completed. With the new system of cleaning drains, roads, water removal, and waste management, post-flood infections and foul smell were largely controlled. In 834 villages, active tracking and fogging/disinfection activities were carried out against diseases like dengue, malaria, and chikungunya. The relief and rehabilitation campaign received strong support from the people, sending out a message of social unity.
Punjab government teams, in coordination with the local administration and medical staff, brought effective awareness campaigns, medicine distribution, sanitation drives, and emergency medical response to reality on the ground in flood-affected areas. As quickly as the situation changed, relief operations were organized across the state with equal speed and efficiency. Every action is being digitally tracked, with transparency being the topmost priority. From health department monitoring to the fast pace of ground-level relief, the government has proved that the safety and health of the people are paramount — no matter how challenging the circumstances may be.
Because of these efforts, the process of bringing Punjab back to normal has gained speed. The government is receiving widespread appreciation for ensuring relief reaches every citizen, stopping diseases in time, and maintaining transparency in rehabilitation and reconstruction. Punjab government’s policies and the successful efforts of its ground-level administrative teams have truly become an example for the whole country, proving that even in the tough times of a disaster like floods, “alert administration and strong Punjab” is not just a slogan but a reality. Not just this, the data and records shared with the public stand as true evidence of the Punjab government’s hard work.
