TEZPUR, July 14: Despite gradual improvements in the flood situation in parts of Sonitpur district, over 15 villages in the Gutlung area under Tezpur Sadar Police Station and Tezpur revenue circle continue to grapple with post-flood issues. Common health problems such as gastrointestinal, skin, eye, and respiratory infections are prevalent among the affected population.
Recognising the urgent need, the social organisation Gutlung Adarsha Yuba Sangha organised a free health camp at Gutlung Riverside Primary School on Saturday.
