Port Blair, July 15: Andaman Sheekha on July 03, 2013 had reported about nearly two months old baby Akshita Majumder, who is suffering from Congenital Heart Disease, a hole in the heart since her birth but till now no help came from the side of Administration. As time is running out parents of the bay are getting more worried.
It seems that the entire Administration became too busy in departure of former LG and arrival of new Lt. Governor and perhaps forgot about extending any help to the baby. Condition is so bad that the Doctors of G B Pant Hospital has now referred Akshita to Mainland India for specialized treatment with a caution that delay may be problematic for the little angel.
But for parents of the little girl, taking the new born baby to Mainland India for specialized heart treatment seems like an impossible task as they belong to very poor family. Sadly they don’t have a BPL card and hence they can’t get treatment benefit under BPL category.
Akshita’s father P Mazumder runs a small pan shop for his leaving and has no idea where to go for help. Earlier in many occasions the Lt. Governor of A & N Islands had sanctioned financial assistance, which is the only hope for the poor parents. Hope the Raj Niwas will react soon and come to the rescue of the little girl.
Meanwhile those who want to help the little angel may contact Mr. Paritosh Mazumder, father of Akshita Majumder @ mobile number 9476047953 (BSNL), 8967380226 (Airtel Local) or Editor Andaman Sheekha @ 09932082892.
