It is defeneatly a inovative project and i got the oppertunity to operate this MMU in Jharkhand. Now the MMU are fully operanational in Jharkhand and the state govt. has brought more MMU in the state. It is a suggestion that their should be a seperate cell for management, planning and operationalising the huge mobile infrastructure of health services. Their should be sound mechanism to monitore such and innovative program, and it is my belief if we work on this it will be one of the most impressive tool to serve the underserved people. And their are ample of scope that their can be planned for convergence of other programs. I was In Vikas Bharti Bishunpur (NGO) who is operating this MMU in Jharkhand. If proper monitoring and micro plan is developed it has a future not only in those state which is having this services but the whole nation can have.
