BMC takes early dengue guard

The Bidhannagar Municipal Corporation (BMC) has formed a team of health and conservancy workers who will start a 'dengue pulse detection' drive on Monday. The team will visit the areas in Salt Lake and Rajarhat Gopalpur, which were affected by dengue last year, and take up measures, including larvicide spraying and cleaning of garbage to prevent any dengue outbreak this year. Last year, over 4,200 dengue cases had been reported from the BMC area - the highest in recent times.
