RMC combats vector-borne diseases with new initiatives

Ranchi Municipal Corporation has launched an intensive fogging and sanitation drive to combat vector-borne diseases, deploying nine cold fogging machines and thermal units. Prioritizing 'sentinel wards', the RMC will soon introduce indoor fogging and focus on abandoned buildings. A monthly spraying roster will be available online, with a toll-free number for citizen complaints. Precautionary measures are being intensified across Jharkhand.
