Opinions
|
We need to educate the people in community, there are a lot of people who do not know what is going on with their health condition, so the BAPS Charities Health Fair has been very helpful in making the community healthier.

BAPS Charities gave an opportunity to see different kinds of doctors under the same roof. Great event.
