"As the first rays of sunlight fell over the banks of the Brahmaputra River and
birds began to chirp, Riturekha Barua, a district program officer (DPO) for a
solar-powered boat clinic, was busy ensuring that she had enough medicines,
vaccines and other essential medical equipment. In the weeks ahead, she and her
team would conduct health camps and check-ups across 18 villages in the Majuli
district of India’s northeastern state of Assam.
While Barua and the community workers managed administrative tasks to ensure
smooth operations for the medical team, Dr. Saddam Hussain and another medical
officer discussed the skin disease outbreak that had become a concern during
the rainy season. Pharmacist Apul Kumar Das and the three nurses were
responsible for overseeing the distribution of medicines and vaccines, ensuring
an adequate supply for the entire month. Das expressed his sense of fortune in
being a part of the boat clinic, finding motivation in his role as a frontline
worker to continue this important work."
