Health concerns
J&K administration post pandemic has started taking measures to address many other health concerns especially regarding the women and children.
Due to the pandemic waves the health department and other arms of the administration could not do the required campaigns to educate rural women of how to take care of their health especially in pregnancy and post pregnancy period.
