An interaction was held with the medical staff at the CHC Conference Hall, during which the MLA stated that the contribution was made with the objective of assisting the poorest sections of society. He also emphasised the need to create public awareness about the existence of the Poor Fund at CHC Chawngte so that more individuals and organisations may be encouraged to contribute. He further expressed his intention to explore the establishment of a medicine bank at CHC Chawngte to benefit needy patients.

During the interaction, medical officers highlighted that several economically weak families possess Above Poverty Line (APL) cards despite being Below Poverty Line (BPL), which renders them ineligible for various healthcare schemes. The MLA assured that the matter would be taken up with the concerned authorities.

The medical officers also apprised the MLA of inadequate infrastructure in the maternity ward and the need for its upgradation. In this regard, the MLA contacted the Chief Medical Officer, Lawngtlai, and requested that necessary steps be taken. He referred to the funds earlier sought from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) during the tenure of Dr. Lalthangliana, former Health Minister of Mizoram, and requested that priority be given to CHC Chawngte.
