Away from modernity, ANM Kavita, posted at Jatlur in Abujhmad, is no less than a ‘messiah’ for the villagers here. In the rugged villages of Agyanmad, Kavita is doing her work with zeal. He has been posted here for 8 years. Every day a medical kit reaches the inner villages, sometimes carrying a vaccination box. Kavita is engaged to save the villagers from the corona infection.
The villagers call him Doctor Didi. There is no road to reach the inner villages of Jatlur and the means of communication are also less. She is providing health facilities to the villagers of Padmeta, Rasmeta, Karangul, Lanka and other villages including Jatalur. . The villagers of Abujhmad are not aware of the corona vaccination, they are prepared only after explaining it.
The poem describes the characters that to reach Lanka village of Orchha block one can reach Bhairamgarh via Dantewada and Bijapur districts in a day. If it is to reach Lanka from Orchha, then it takes two to three days. So many times they have to go through Dantewada and Bijapur districts. To reach Jatalur and other villages, one has to go through rivers, streams, dense forests, hilly, rocky paths. The distance of each village from Jatalur is 20 to 25 kilometers. There are many difficulties in delivery and vaccination of children. Pregnant women try to provide proper treatment at the time of emergency. More serious patients are taken to Orchha headquarters with the help of villagers with the help of Kavad. Kavita says that the love that the villagers get during the service, removes all their suffering.
