Chairing the 7th meeting of the Island Development Agency (IDA) here on Friday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah reviewed the progress of ongoing development initiatives in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Lakshadweep.
Pointing out that the percentage of people seeking help for dental issues was abysmally low, Dr Dhable said it needed to be improved to at least 15 per cent.
"The effects of the cyclone were devastating. The state government is actively battling to restore the status of the affected areas. We, on behalf of the dental fraternity, made a small effort to stand solemnly beside those people. We would like to convey our thanks to the government for their cooperation as well as the members of our organisation who shaped this entire initiative into a reality," IDA state branch secretary Dr Raju Biswas said.
