CHANDIGARH — Around 200 residents from Sectors 20 and 30 availed themselves of comprehensive medical services during a free health check-up camp organized at Bharti Bhawan, Sector 30, on Sunday. The community initiative formed part of the nationwide ‘Seva Sankalp Abhiyan’ undertaken by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to commemorate the birthday of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Chandigarh BJP State President Jatinder Pal Malhotra attended the event as Chief Guest, while senior party leader Sanjay Tandon joined as a guest of honour to encourage the volunteers. Meanwhile, BJP State Spokesperson Naresh Arora spearheaded the organisation of the camp alongside Mandal President Ravi Rawat, District Secretary Meenakshi Singh, and the dedicated team of Mandal No. 18. Medical teams provided specialized consultations across multiple disciplines, including general medicine, orthopaedics, urology, cardiology, and pulmonology.

Therefore, residents welcomed the doorstep delivery of specialized healthcare services without financial burden. Local community members expressed strong appreciation for the camp, noting that having diverse clinical specialists and modern diagnostic tools under one roof made health evaluations accessible and efficient.

Lies and Misinformation Exposed: Congress-INDI Alliance Allegations Against Election Commission Baseless, Says BJP

BJP Chandigarh chief Jatinder Pal Malhotra slammed the opposition for attacking constitutional bodies and misleading citizens regarding the Special Intensive Revision process. CHANDIGARH — The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) launched a sharp counter-offensive against the Congress and the INDI Alliance on Sunday, calling their allegations against the Election Commission baseless and politically motivated. Addressing a press conference at the party’s state headquarters ‘Kamalam’ in Sector 33, BJP Chandigarh Pradesh President Jatinder Pal Malhotra accused the opposition of deliberately eroding public trust in constitutional institutions. Malhotra clarified that the controversy over a letter sent to the Cabinet Secretary was completely manufactured. He stated that the Election Commission’s clarification already established that the letter involved an internal administrative matter concerning an officer’s service, rather than any electoral policy or the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise. Therefore, linking routine administrative correspondence to policy decisions amounts to deliberately distorting facts. Meanwhile, the BJP chief addressed the opposition’s claims regarding Form-6 voter enrolments. He affirmed that Form-6 remains the standard, legally prescribed method for eligible citizens to enter electoral rolls. Furthermore, booth-level officers (BLOs) are conducting door-to-door outreach solely to ensure maximum democratic participation. “Political opposition has its place, but compromising the credibility of democratic institutions cannot be accepted,” Malhotra said. “The Congress and the INDI Alliance should abandon the politics of lies, misinformation, and incomplete information, and present their views before the people on the basis of facts.” In addition, Malhotra noted that questioning independent bodies like the judiciary, the CAG, and the armed forces has become a recurring pattern for Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. He recalled that Gandhi previously tendered an unconditional apology in the Supreme Court over remarks made during the 2019 Rafale hearings. BJP Chief Spokesperson Dr. Dharinder Tayal highlighted the opposition’s selective trust in electoral systems. He pointed out that while the Congress celebrates the Election Commission and electronic voting machines when winning in neighbouring Himachal Pradesh, it routinely discredits those same institutions upon facing electoral defeat. State Media In-charge Ravi Rawat, Spokesperson Gurpreet Dhillon, Rahul Sharma, and Neha Arora also attended the briefing.

BJP Chandigarh will sponsor cataract surgeries for 50 patients, while doctors flag high blood sugar levels in nearly 300 visitors during the weekend camp. CHANDIGARH — More than 1,300 residents received free medical screenings during a two-day Mega Health Camp held in Dhanas Char Manzil Colony on September 26 and 27. The camp was organised as part of the ‘Seva Sankalp Abhiyan’ to mark the birthday of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The initiative took place under the directions of BJP Chandigarh Pradesh President Jatinder Pal Malhotra. Meanwhile, BJP Medical Cell President Lalit Takiar and Medical Cell In-charge Dr. Sanjeev Bhatia supervised and guided the operations on the ground. Doctors and paramedical staff from GMCH-32 and Government Multi-Specialty Hospital (GMSH-16) provided comprehensive clinical consultations. Beneficiaries accessed diagnostic tests for blood sugar, blood pressure, bone mineral density, and vision care. In addition, the GMCH-32 mobile van performed specialized DEXA scans and mammography screenings for around 140 visitors. Crucially, eye specialists identified nearly 50 patients who urgently require cataract surgery. BJP Chandigarh Pradesh announced that it will bear the entire cost of these operations so that financial constraints do not deny treatment to underprivileged families. Furthermore, teams distributed free prescription medicines to patients, including up to three-month drug supplies for chronic conditions. However, medical teams also uncovered critical health trends during routine diagnostics. Around 300 patients registered significantly high blood sugar levels, with many learning about their diabetic condition for the first time. Consequently, attending physicians offered immediate counselling on lifestyle modifications and referred them for targeted follow-up care. Key contributors to the event included Deepak Pathak, Dr. Meena Chadha, Vikas Bansal, Anu Singla, Rajesh Singla, Raghav, Abhineet, Inder Dev Sharma, and District Convenor Sanjay Arora. Ultimately, organizers stated that the camp advanced the core mission of grassroots public service. The BJP Medical Cell reaffirmed its commitment to organizing regular healthcare drives across vulnerable neighbourhoods in Chandigarh.
