Over 20,000 people on Sunday visited the free mega health camp at the Kasi Sahu College campus in Jharkhand's Seraikela Kharswan district.
The mega health camp was organized by the Union Ministry of Tribal Affairs, Tata Steel Foundation, and the Seraikela Kharswan district administration.
Addressing the programme, Union Tribal Affairs Minister Arjun Munda said his ministry shouldered the responsibility of organizing the mega health camp here as the objective of the camp was to ensure better healthcare facilities for the poor people and move forward to build a healthy and strong India.
He said the country is performing well in the health sector under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Along with good healthcare, Munda said providing quality education in the remote region was among the list priorities of his ministry.
