Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Wednesday launched India’s first Tele-MANAS chat-bot in the Union Territory, which will ensure round the clock services of health counsellors, clinical psychologists and consultants, officials said.

The service was launched after Sinha inaugurated ‘J-K Health Conclave’ on mental health and non-communicable diseases at SKICC here, they said.

On the occasion, the J-K Health and Medical Education Department inked memorandums of understanding (MoUs) with Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital and Research Centre and NIMHANS, the officials said.
