As per the details available with Early Times, the Sub Centre Srunga has been established with the aim to provide health facilities to the people living in Ramsoo & Neel area of the Banihal Sub Division, since the people living in these areas still lack basic health facilities in the need of hour since the areas falling under this Sub Centre are far flung having no alternative medical facilities available to the people. The people told Early Times that it unfortunate that centre is closed form the past one month added that they also talked to the concerned BMO, but there was no positive response from him as well. They said that due to the fear of the Corona Virus spread, the district administration has stopped all educational and business as well as transport and termed it as a good initiative.
