Observations during the camp
The camp was organised at the National Scheduled Tribes Finance and Development Cooperation, Bikhaji Cama Place, New Delhi starting from 11:00 AM till 3:00 PM. Footfall was moderate and a total of forty four beneficiaries were covered during the camp time. Most of the beneficiaries were overweight and obese and had hypertension and diabetes. Most of them were physically active although they were not exercising regularly. Participants were cooperative and enthusiastic to get diet related information pertaining to diabetes and hypertension. Some of them were more inquisitive and asked several questions. Supervisors helped in organizing the camp in their meeting room. They were warm and welcoming. Overall the camp functioned well without any hassle.
