The camp was organized with the support of NRIs and World Cancer Care (Cancer Care Charitable Society) and was held in memory of the late Kartar Chand Kler and the late Harbilas Bangar. The camp was organized under the guidance of Committee President Advocate Kuldeep Bhatti and was enthusiastically attended by local residents. The program was inaugurated by Chief Guests Surinder Jhalli and German Singh (UK), who jointly inaugurated the camp by cutting the ribbon.

Earlier, Bante Vinay Thero began the event with the recitation of the Panchsheel and the Trisharana, creating a sacred and inspiring atmosphere for the day. A team of specialist doctors conducted free medical checkups, consultations, and distributed free medicines to over 500 patients. Under the eye care service, free spectacles were provided to approximately 200 needy patients. Additionally, 20 patients were shortlisted for eye surgery, which will be performed free of charge at Dr. Rajan Eye Care Hospital in Phagwara. Alongside the eye care service, a free general medical check-up camp was also organized with the support of Sewa Society Banga (Punjab). During the camp, patients underwent free health screenings, including blood pressure, sugar level, and ECG tests, and were provided with free medicines as needed.
