Road traffic accidents/casualties are common phenomenon due to heavy vehicular movement on national highway-24 between Hapur and Moradabad. This 120 Km stretch of the road does not have appropriate medical infrastructure to deal with accident victims/causalities. Every day many persons loss their precious lives or become handicap due to not getting timely medical aid. Rotary Club Bhartiagram, RI Distt.3100 has realized that there is community need for establishment of Trauma Centre to save the lives of accident victims. Along with the Trauma support, the centre will also run a "Polyclinic" with multi-speciality and multi-disciplinary Doctors to serve the poor segment of the society.
