A community health centre named Aam Aadmi Clinic has been opened in Tung, a village in Amritsar district of Punjab, to provide affordable medical services.
The Aam Aadmi Clinic, a low‑cost health facility, was officially opened today in the rural settlement of Tung, located on the outskirts of Amritsar, Punjab. The clinic aims to deliver basic medical care, preventive health checks and essential medicines to villagers who previously had to travel long distances for treatment.
Local authorities and health officials attended the inauguration, emphasizing the government's focus on expanding primary healthcare in underserved areas. The centre is equipped with a consultation room, a small pharmacy and basic diagnostic tools, and will operate on a sliding‑scale fee structure.
Community members expressed optimism that the new clinic will reduce the financial burden of healthcare and improve early detection of common ailments. The initiative aligns with broader state efforts to strengthen rural health infrastructure and ensure that essential services are within reach of every citizen.
The Aam Aadmi Clinic will be staffed by a qualified doctor, a nurse and support personnel, and is expected to serve several thousand residents from Tung and neighboring villages.
Follow‑up reports will monitor patient turnout and the impact of the clinic on local health outcomes.
