Moirang: The Indian Army organised a school health screening camp at Moirang Multipurpose Higher Secondary School, extending medical support to children as part of its Civil–Military Fusion initiative.

More than 350 students, aged between 8 and 17, were examined by a team of 12 doctors and 7 healthcare workers. Specialists from the Army Medical Corps, RBSK teams, and local health departments carried out checks in eye care, ENT, dental health, and pediatric well-being, including mental and behavioural assessments.

The Deputy Commissioner of Bishnupur, the Commander of 59 Brigade, the Chief Medical Officer, and several local figures attended the event. Their presence signalled the administration’s backing for the Army’s outreach efforts.

The camp also marked World AIDS Day. Students took part in a poster-making competition built around the idea of prevention and awareness. Winners were felicitated during the programme.

Officials said the initiative aims to strengthen cooperation between the Army, district administration, and health agencies while ensuring that children in remote areas receive timely medical attention. The Army noted that such programmes help deepen trust and expand healthcare access in communities across the region.
