Community Drive Key to Winning War on Dengue: Nadda

Marking National Dengue Day, Health Minister Jagat Prakash Nadda highlighted the critical role of community participation in defeating dengue. He reminded citizens that simple measures like preventing water accumulation, regular cleaning, and raising awareness can significantly reduce mosquito breeding. The central government is reinforcing its strategy through better monitoring, advanced diagnostics, improved treatment protocols, and widespread information campaigns. The official theme for the year urges people to 'Check, Clean, and Cover' their surroundings. Nadda's message was reinforced by state leaders. Together, their statements paint a clear picture: sustained community action, combined with robust government support, offers the best defense against seasonal dengue outbreaks.
