President Dr Mohamed Muizzu has inaugurated the medical room - Minimum Medical Requirements Facility - at the Social Centre last night.

The event was also attended by Minister of Sports, Recreation and Fitness Abdulla Rafiu, Commissioner of Sports Mohamed Tholal and senior members from the Olympic Committee and other sports associations.

Establishment of this medical facility falls under the President's initiative to provide medical facilities at all key locations where national and international sports events are held.

These medical facilities are equipped to provide first aid services at the location, and to organize transfers to hospitals in cases where more intensive care is required.
