Four government-run Primary Health Centres (PHCs) in Mizoram — South Vanlaiphai, Sairang, Bunghmun South, and Kawrtethawveng — have been recognised among the best-performing PHCs in the country under the National Quality Assurance Standards (NQAS).

According to Dr. Lily Chhakchhuak, Mission Director of the National Health Mission, the recognition comes after each of these centres achieved exceptional scores in the NQAS assessment. Sairang PHC topped the list with 94.64%, followed closely by Bunghmun South (93.21%), South Vanlaiphai (93.07%), and Kawrtethawveng PHC (92.44%).

“Such achievements not only reflect the capability of our healthcare system but also build public trust in government-run health facilities,” she said.
