Free Medical Camp Near LOC Village Bhedhi
The Al Mohafiz Foundation has been committed to delivering healthcare to remote and underserved communities, especially in regions near the Line of Control (LOC) in Kashmir. In August 2014, the foundation organized its first free medical camp in the LOC village of Khawaja Bandhi Bhedhi, providing free medical treatment and medicines to all patients regardless of their background or financial status. This initiative marked the beginning of a series of medical camps conducted across various LOC regions, aimed at ensuring that people living in these high-risk and neglected areas receive essential healthcare services. Through these camps, the foundation continues to uphold its mission of compassion, service, and care for humanity.

Healthcare Initiatives Near the Line of Control (LOC) by Al Mohafiz Foundation
The Al Mohafiz Foundation has been steadfastly committed to providing vital healthcare services to remote and underserved communities in Kashmir, with a special focus on areas near the Line of Control (LOC). Recognizing the unique challenges faced by these populations—who often live in conflict-affected and resource-scarce environments—the foundation has prioritized medical outreach as a core part of its humanitarian efforts.
In August 2014, the foundation launched its pioneering free medical camp in the LOC village of Khawaja Bandhi Bhedhi. This initial camp set a strong precedent for compassion and inclusivity by offering comprehensive medical treatment and free medicines to all patients, regardless of their financial status, social background, or ethnicity. The success and impact of this camp inspired the foundation to expand its healthcare outreach program extensively.
Since then, the foundation has organized numerous medical camps across multiple LOC villages, reaching thousands of individuals who otherwise have limited or no access to basic healthcare services. These camps provide a wide range of services including:
General health check-ups
Treatment for chronic and acute illnesses
Distribution of free essential medicines
Maternal and child health services
Health education and awareness sessions on preventive care
By bringing healthcare directly to these vulnerable communities, the Al Mohafiz Foundation addresses critical gaps in the medical infrastructure and reduces the burden on families who would otherwise have to travel long distances at great expense and risk to seek care.
Impact and Ongoing Commitment
These medical camps have become lifelines for residents of LOC-adjacent areas, many of whom face daily hardships due to conflict, poverty, and isolation. The foundation’s efforts have not only improved immediate health outcomes but also fostered trust and goodwill among communities, reinforcing the importance of equitable healthcare access as a human right.
The foundation works closely with local healthcare professionals, volunteers, and sometimes international medical experts who generously donate their time and expertise. This collaborative approach ensures that the care provided is both culturally sensitive and medically effective.
Looking Forward
Al Mohafiz Foundation remains dedicated to continuing and expanding its healthcare services near the LOC. Plans are underway to:
Increase the frequency and reach of medical camps
Introduce mobile health clinics to cover even more remote areas
Develop partnerships with government and private healthcare entities
Train local community health workers to sustain long-term health improvements
Through these initiatives, the foundation reaffirms its mission of compassion, service, and care for humanity, striving to bring hope and healing to those living in some of Kashmir’s most challenging environments.
