He said there are 20 community clinics in the Paba-Mohanpur area. Initiatives have been taken to modernize these clinics, including the Nurnahar Community Clinic.
For the convenience of char residents, construction of paved roads is already underway to improve transportation. In the future, initiatives will be taken to build floating piers on the river and arrange fast-moving water vessels to ensure quick transportation of patients across the river.
He also urged doctors to take necessary measures to ensure that people living in the char areas receive regular healthcare services.
Milon further said that, to ensure education and healthcare for char residents, regular doctors at community clinics and regular teachers and classes at schools will be arranged.
Necessary steps will also be taken to ensure that people living in remote char areas can live safely.
