Boat Ambulance

Jammu and Kashmir will be getting its first-ever boat ambulance soon on the Dal Lake. A local resident, Tariq Ahmad Patloo, has come up with this idea after he contracted COVID-19 and visited a doctor using his friend’s boat. Tariq, who himself owns a houseboat, said the 35-feet long boat will have basic facilities including oxygen cylinder, ECG, wheelchair, stretcher and a toll-free number to contact.
