Mulkh Raj Ram Dulari Nanda Rotary Yamunanagar Charitable Eye & General Hospital, Farakpur
Identified Needs
The Yamunanagar district, particularly the Farakpur area and its surrounding villages, shows a high prevalence of untreated eye disorders like cataracts and refractive errors, as well as significant dental health issues, especially among children and industrial laborers. With no accessible, specialized medical facility in the area, these communities remain underserved.

The hospital will provide:
Routine and surgical eye care (e.g. cataract removal, refraction services).
Preventive and restorative dental care.
