Telangana health officer treks 16km through hills and streams to help isolated tribes: The full journey

As per a TOI report, the health officer's mission was to deliver medicines, mosquito nets, and provisions to 11 tribal families from the Guthi Koya tribe. His efforts were driven not only by the need to provide essentials but also by a desire to convince the families to relocate to the plains for their safety. The challenging conditions in their current location, including the difficulty in accessing medical facilities during emergencies, prompted this request.
