Ranchi, October 15 (Daily Kiran) : Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren has swiftly provided ₹10 lakh in medical assistance for the treatment of six-year-old Anup Besra from Ramgarh district. Under the Chief Minister’s Severe Illness Treatment Scheme, all necessary procedures were completed within 48 hours, with a cheque handed to Anup’s father, Ramkishun Besra, on Thursday. The child is currently receiving treatment at Christian Medical College in Vellore, Tamil Nadu.

Soren is presently in his ancestral village, Nemra, for the ceremonial observance of his late mother, Rupai Soren. During his visit, he has been meeting with locals who have come to discuss their issues. On Thursday, he listened to their complaints and requests, accepting applications and instructing relevant officials to address their concerns.

Ramkishun Besra approached the Chief Minister about the financial difficulties his family faced in affording Anup’s ear treatment. He explained that the costs were expected to be substantial, making it challenging for the family to gather such a large sum.

Following this, the Ramgarh district administration promptly completed the medical grant procedures under the Chief Minister’s Severe Illness Treatment Scheme within 48 hours.
