HARWAN: The residents of Harwan and adjacent villages in the outskirts of Srinagar are anguished against authorities for failing to upgrade PHC Harwan despite various assurances by the elected representatives.
The residents said that they had been demanding to up-grade the existing Primary Health Centre at Harwan to the level of CHC or SDH for decades and during previous dispensation a process was started in this regard but that is yet to be implemented on ground.
'The inhabitants are facing tremendous hardships due non-availability of proper health care facilities espacially during the night hours. If our health centre at Harwan had been upgraded to CHC or SDH, our sufferings would have certainly ended but donât know why authorities are reluctant to implement the decision of upgrading our health centre,â DPAP Senior Leader Peer Bilal said.
