摘要
The landscape of healthcare in rural India has long been characterized by challenges that include accessibility, affordability, and cultural acceptance. Among these difficulties, the story of Dr. Rajnikant Arole and Dr. Mabelle Arole stands out as a beacon of hope and innovation. Their work in the rural areas of Maharashtra not only transformed the health outcomes of the local population but also set a precedent for community-based healthcare initiatives worldwide.
