A new initiative by the Dharamshala-based Tong-Len Charitable Trust is set to transform healthcare access for underprivileged communities with the launch of a mobile clinic bus. This venture will provide essential medical services free of charge to slum dwellers around the city.

The mobile clinic, which is the brainchild of monk Lobsang Jamyang, promises to cover a wide range of diseases through its equipped facilities and will begin services under the patronage of Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu.

Aimed at assisting up to 20,000 residents, the clinic will soon expand to offer tele-medicine services. It signifies a significant leap forward in medical outreach, providing necessary tests, treatments, and vaccines directly to those in need.
