In a bid to ensure physically fitness of media professionals, a special health camp is going to be organized on June 17 here in the Directorate of Information on Ring Road, Dehradun. The camp is being organised as per the directions of Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami and is a joint effort by the Health and Information Departments.
