¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, my second supplementary: This is a remote, difficult area. At a time many doctors have left the country or moved to urban hospitals, I have observed that the Medical Superintendent and a team of specialists and staff have remained, continuing their duties with commitment. Are there any measures to recognize and motivate such officers serving under difficult conditions?
