The Udupi District administration has initiated a massive deworming tablet distribution drive, targeting 7.8 lakh children in the district. The move aims to combat worm infestation, a common issue affecting children in the region, and improve their overall health.
The distribution drive is expected to benefit students in government and private schools across the district, with a focus on underprivileged children who are more susceptible to worm infestation. According to officials, the deworming tablets will be administered to children in the age group of 6-19 years, as per the National Deworming Day guidelines.

By distributing deworming tablets, the Udupi District administration is taking a proactive step towards ensuring the health and hygiene of its children, setting a positive precedent for other districts to follow.
