In order to deliver essential surgical care to remote and rural areas of Nagaland, the Chief Minister’s Mobile Operation Theatre (CM-MOT) program conducted its fourth phase at Tuensang District Hospital from April 25–26 and Tobu Community Health Centre on April 28, 2025. In Tuensang and Tobu, a group of highly qualified medical specialists conducted 28 major procedures and 48 in Tobu, providing patients with treatments that could change their lives. Significantly, this was the first laparoscopic procedure ever performed in both locations, which represents a significant improvement in access to healthcare in the area.
Paediatric cases such as phimosis and hernias, genealogical procedures such as ovarian cysts and uterine tumours, family planning, general surgeries such as kidney and gallbladder stones, dental treatments such as scaling, extractions, and restorations, and orthopaedic cases were among the many conditions that were treated at the medical camp. “The community’s profound gratitude for this initiative, which has emerged as a beacon of healthcare excellence—particularly for remote populations who now receive advanced treatment at their doorstep,” said a CM-MOT official. In order to deliver cutting-edge surgical and medical services to rural and isolated regions of Nagaland, Nagaland Governor La Ganesan established the CM-MOT on January 26. Meluri district hosted the first CM-MOT. The government’s dedication to providing all Nagaland citizens with affordable, first-rate healthcare is reaffirmed in this most recent phase.
