Healthcare access is a major concern in Lakshadweep, with limited medical facilities and resources on the islands. The Lakshadweep Police assist in improving healthcare services by ensuring the smooth transportation of medical supplies, coordinating with healthcare providers, and responding to medical emergencies. They also help in the distribution of essential medicines, particularly during health crises such as disease outbreaks.
The police also play a significant role in raising awareness about public health initiatives and ensuring that the community adheres to preventive measures for various diseases. Their involvement is crucial in bridging the gap between limited healthcare infrastructure and the needs of the island population.
