He emphasized that flood-hit regions are highly vulnerable to outbreaks of waterborne and vector-borne diseases, and immediate action is necessary to protect public health.<br \/>\nSpeaking on the current situation, Dr. Yadav stated that contamination of drinking water is a major concern during such times and can lead to illnesses such as stomach infections, headaches, fever and diarrhea. Alongside this, the ongoing season poses an increased risk of mosquito-borne diseases including dengue and chikungunya, which are more likely to spread in areas with accumulated stagnant water.<br \/>\nIssuing instructions to all residents to ensure the safety of their drinking water, Dr. Yadav advised the citizens to boil water for a minimum of 10 minutes before consumption to eliminate harmful microorganisms. \u201cChlorine tablets should be used wherever possible, and water should be allowed to settle for at least half an hour after adding the tablets before it is used for drinking or cooking purposes. Residents are also urged to maintain their surroundings by removing stagnant water from rooftops, courtyards and nearby drains as such areas provide ideal breeding grounds for mosquitoes\u201d he advised.<br \/>\nTo facilitate public health services and immediate assistance, the Health Department has activated the 104 helpline number. This helpline will provide guidance and address any health-related queries from residents. In addition, the Jammu Municipal Corporation has intensified its efforts to conduct fogging and spraying activities across all wards of JMC to control mosquito breeding and minimize the risk of vector-borne diseases.<br \/>\nAppealing to the public, Dr. Yadav said if fogging and spraying activities have not yet reached their locality, they should promptly register their area and ward number on the JMC helpline. This will help the authorities prioritize the areas that require immediate attention and ensure that every ward receives timely preventive measures, he added.<br \/>\nThe health and well-being of our citizens is our top priority,\u201d said Dr. Devansh Yadav, adding that JMC is making every possible effort through coordinated actions involving our sanitation teams, health workers, and support staff. The success of these measures greatly depends on the active cooperation of the public, he said and added that together, we can prevent the spread of diseases and ensure a healthy environment for everyone. JMC is in continuous monitoring and proactive steps are being taken to safeguard the health of the people during this critical period of recovery, he maintained.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32409\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32409\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32409\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges-300x189.jpeg\" alt=\"JMC Issues Comprehensive Health Advisory Amid Post-Flood Challenges\" width=\"300\" height=\"189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges-300x189.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges-549x346.jpeg 549w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges-444x280.jpeg 444w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges-233x147.jpeg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges-230x145.jpeg 230w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges-360x227.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges-100x63.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/JMC-issues-comprehensive-health-advisory-amid-post-flood-challenges.jpeg 579w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32409\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">JMC Issues Comprehensive Health Advisory Amid Post-Flood Challenges<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JAMMU, Sept 06: Commissioner Municipal Corporation Jammu Dr Devansh Yadav has made an urgent appeal to the people of Jammu to remain cautious and adopt preventive measures as several areas of Jammu Municipal Corporation and district Jammu continue to recover from the aftermath of recent floods.
