Banapur: Senior pediatrician Dr. Sanjay Kumar Mohanty has taken charge as the new Medical Superintendent of the Banapur Community Health Center in Khordha district. He assumed the new role from outgoing Superintendent Dr. Ramakanti Nayak.
Dr. Mohanty previously served for many years as the Superintendent of the Mahanga Community Health Center in Cuttack district. On this occasion, Dr. Mohanty was warmly welcomed with flower bouquets by the medical staff of Banapur, local journalists, intellectuals, and political figures.
Banapur is one of the largest community health centers in Khordha district, and two tribal-dominated panchayats heavily depend on its services. In this context, several challenges lie ahead for the new superintendent — including ensuring quality healthcare services, hiring required medical professionals, upgrading diagnostic facilities, installing modern equipment, and operationalizing a new medical campus.
Dr. Mohanty expressed his commitment to prioritize the greater interest of the local population and assured that all developmental activities would be carried out with public support and mutual cooperation.
