Information Of Kumudini Hospital
Starting with twenty beds, Kumudini Hospital now has seven hundred and fifty beds. Undoubtedly the largest privately built hospital in Bangladesh and that too in a village! People in rural Bangladesh had never received such opportunity and service. This large hospital was, therefore, something quite out of the ordinary to the villagers.
People desiring hospital services first visit the Outdoor department. Of course, in case of emergency there is a separate arrangement. Patients coming to the Outdoor department are given a ticket and their preliminary medical history is recorded. Diagnosis and treatment begins after a doctor had seen the patient. If the doctor determines that the patient needs hospitalization then he completes the necessary paper work and the patient is admitted to the hospital. Otherwise, the doctor prepares a prescription for the patient's treatment.
The hospital has its own diagnostic laboratory with all necessary general diagnostic facilities. In addition to diagnostic services this Laboratory has - on a rather limited scale - research and training facilities.
Besides the general facilities under the roof of the Hospital, the Hospital has also a Village Outreach Program where our doctors and nurses are periodically visiting the nearby villages and training the common people on midwifery, family planning, breast feeding, sanitation, antenatal and all general health awareness.
Kumudini hospital provides treatment for almost all types of diseases. Patients come here from all over Bangladesh . The principal attraction is naturally free hospital service of such standard is not available anywhere else in the country. There are charitable dispensaries elsewhere in Bangladesh , but it will be hard to find out any hospital which provides service of the standard that Kumudini Hospital provides even in the urban areas. Of course, the commercially operated medical facilities fall in a separate class and, therefore, not comparable from a service point of view.
Well managed center to provide pre- natal check-up for pregnant mothers, nutrition monitoring and child care for 0-5 years old children, treatment of diarrhoeal diseases/treatment of female diseases, tuberculosis etc. Kumudini Hospital provides permanent birth control facility for willing recipients. In addition to vasectomy and tubectomy a few other non-permanent birth control measures are also provided. TBAs are given training on how to motivate fertile couples to accept family planning measures.Starting from the inception the Hospital used to provide complete free service. But from 1993 the Trust started a Patient's Participation Program for which the patients are to pay just for their medication. For outdoor the patients have to buy a Card worth of Taka 5.00 only which is valid for 6 months and within this time the patients can utilise all sorts of outdoor facilities with this card. There is nothing that the patients have to pay against bed charge or 3 times meal or any other services provided to them except for medicine.

All Basic Information Of Tangail District

It is one of the important cities of Central Bangladesh and main urban area of Tangail District. The city is located on the bank of Louhajang River.
History Of Tangail District
The pourashava was established on 1 July 1887. During its establishment the town was composed of only 5 wards.
| Ward No. | Area |
|---|---|
| 1 | Tangail Kanda Para, Par Dighulia, Akur Takur Para |
| 2 | Korer Betka, Mirer Betka, Nondir Betka, Sabalia, Dorun, Ashekpur, Nagor Jalfai, Boali |
| 3 | Garai, Berai, Kazipur, Bachrakandi, Potol, Bajitpur, Berabuchna, Valluk kandi |
| 4 | Kagmari, Sontosh, Aloa, Boitta, Patuli, Ekrampur |
| 5 | Kalipur, Dighulia, Sakrail, Kaiyamara, Beradoma, Basha, Khanpur |
Afterwards, The pourashava was reshaped into 4 wards-
- Ward no. 1 as 'Central'
- Ward no. 2 as 'Betka'
- Ward no. 3 as 'Dighulia'
- Ward no. 4 as 'Santosh'
Again in 1988 it was subdivided into 6 wards-
- Ward no. 1 as 'Central'
- Ward no. 2 as 'Betka'
- Ward no. 3 as 'Dighulia'
- Ward no. 4 as 'Santosh'
- Ward no. 5 as 'Zila Sadar'
- Ward no. 6 as 'Kazipur'
Then after some random decisions for few years, in 1999 The town was subdivided into 18 wards and gained its present shape.
First ever election of the town was held in November, 1887. In that election 8 ward commissioners from 4 wards was elected by direct vote of the citizens of the town. On the other hand, The then Subdivision Commissioner of Tangail-Shashi Shekhar Dutt was appointed as the first administrator of Tangail Municipality. There was no pakka street in this town then. No lamp post could be seen in the roads. In 1890s The town was lacking safe water supply too. So the regional zamindars and subdivision board came forward and helped financially to dig ponds, lakes & canals. Those water sources served the local people in safe water supply tremendously.
In early 1900s, The pourashava authority took initiatives to torch the roads for the first time by kerosene lambs.The pourashava gradually became populated in the first half of 20th Century. At that time, many tube wells were set up in the town. The main way of transportation was horse cars within the town. People used their cattle for transportation too.
People of Tangail used to visit Kolkata through Charabari by launch and Dhaka through Mymensingh. In early 1930s, electricity line was first provided in the town. The rickshaws started to roll in town's streets. In 1960s, pakka roads were constructed in the town. In the meantime, Tangail was directly connected to Dhaka by road. Many bridges and culverts were constructed to develop the area also. The town got water supply by pipe lines at that time.
In 1985 Tangail Municipality was promoted to 'B Class' from 'C Class'. Again in 1989 the pourashava was promoted to 'A Class' from 'B Class'. In 1990s, The town was financed by Asian Development Bank and Government of Bangladesh to develop water supply, sanitation, Waste water drainage, Bus Terminal, Super Markets and other infrastructures.
