Amid COVID Scare, Medical Camps Come Up At Borders

While medical experts in Delhi have warned that the farmers' protests on the Capital's borders could soon turn into a superspreader event, the unyielding farmers at Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur borders maintain that the three farm laws introduced by the Centre posed a graver threat to them and their lives.

NEW DELHI:

However, as support for the farmers grew across the country, several humanitarian organisations, doctors and political organisations have now set up medical camps for regular health check-ups and to tend to the wounds of those protesters injured by the excessive police force on their way to the Capital's borders.

Many doctors said that injured farmers are still arriving at the borders. In fact, the Delhi government has also provided a first-aid ambulance with an oximeter and other essentials.
