The Municipal Corporation of Delhi has said that it is sending a team of 100 doctors, nurses and para-medical staff to flood-affected areas of Bihar.
The team will carry medicines and medical accessories required for treating cholera, gastroenteritis, jaundice, malaria and other diseases which are common after flood water recedes, Mayor Arti Mehra said.
She said the MCD has dispatched 70 quintals of relief material to the District Magistrates of Purnia and Saharsa, including items like clothes, rice, flour, packaged drinking water, biscuits, candles and utensils.
A philanthropist has supplied 5,000 antibiotic doses, Mehra said.
The relief camps operating at Railway Stations in Delhi for the Bihar flood victims will be further strengthened, Mehra said.
