Assam Floods: Padma Shri Doc Uses Makeshift Boats for Free Cancer Treatments in Silchar #IndiaNEWS #Inspirational
The Assam floods have thus far affected 32 districts of the state, wreaking havoc in the lives of around 54 lakh people. While waters are slowly receding in some areas, over 22 lakh people are still affected. Over 100 people have died because of the disastrous calamity.
The Army, the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), and other agencies are engaged in rescue and relief operations through the flood waters.
In Silchar, many parts of the Cachar Cancer Hospital and Research Centre are completely submerged because of the floods. Due to this, patients have been critically affected and are being transported on makeshift boats.
Surgical oncologist and director of the hospital Dr Ravi Kannan is checking how safe the conveyance of these makeshift boats is at the hospital. “We’ve created a raft. We took four lorry tubes and put plywood across them and tied it up. We’re ferrying patients up and down across that in front of the hospital,? says Dr Kannan in an interview with The Better India.
Sharing a photo of the doctor checking the boat, surgical oncologist and head of the department Dr Ritesh Tapkire tweeted about Dr Kannan.

“The hospital is marooned but outside there’s an area available. We have set up an OPD there, where chemotherapy, drawing blood, etc. is being conducted. And patients that need more attention we’re ferrying them in on the makeshift raft,? adds Dr Kannan.
There’s also an acute shortage of food, water, needles, and money for boats, he adds.
Dr Kannan added that they’re now starting to go to patientp&HYX]HX[Hو[HHXۙY[[&]XH][H][ 8'YHHYZ[HYو]Y[H^[Y[HX[[ܝ[[HH][ ]]Y[H[]][HXKx&]H[][H[X]HH[[^H[وX]Y[]X 8“ۘHH]XYK^H[[YY[ۙ^H܈ZX[]][ۈ[HX[Hو[[&]Y[&H[XYY&HY]HY[[XYY܈][HXYY
