Leaving No One Behind!

Gaytala chiwog under Dagala Gewog, Thimphu Dzongkhag is one of the remotest chiwogs in the country and to go to Gaytala, one has to travel from Toktokha village under Chukha Dzongkhag. There is no access from the gewog center located at Chamgang. The chiwog is officially 3 days away from the Dagala gewog center. The people of this chiwog sustain their livelihood mainly through rearing yaks.

The vaccination team from Thimphu Dzongkhag visited this chiwog and vaccinated 13 eligible people (6 male, 7 female) on 24 July 2021 with the second dose COVID-19 vaccine. The people expressed their immense gratitude to His Majesty the King and the Royal Government of Bhutan for making the vaccination available for them despite the hardship in reaching them especially during the monsoon.
