World Health Day awareness camp at Bollikunta — outreach report

The college held a free health awareness and screening camp across three villages around Bollikunta, covering 400+ residents with BP, blood-sugar and basic first-aid screening.

The Extension Activities Cell, with support from the Red Ribbon Club and Pharm.D senior cohort, ran the annual World Health Day camp on 7 April 2026 across three villages adjoining the Bollikunta campus.

Four hundred and twenty residents were screened for blood pressure and blood sugar; one hundred and fifty received a basic first-aid orientation. Cases flagged for follow-up have been referred to the nearest primary health centre and the college's faculty advisors.

The camp was inaugurated by the Principal and the local municipal commissioner. Funding came from the institutional outreach budget; a brief report has been filed with the District Health Office.
