For him the job on site after the cyclonic devastation was more important than his ailing health.
Subash Chandra Jena, assistant executive engineer with Division II of the Engineering Wing of BMC, who, defying his difficulties and pain from the post-dialysis situations, could join the job on field as the Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) in a team spirit, worked tirelessly to rebuild the ravaged city after the Cyclone Fani on May 3.
A patient with kidney ailment since December last, Jena is on dialysis for two days in a week and spending over three to four hours in the dialysis unit at a city hospital.
Interestingly, despite the handicap on the health front, he continued his duty from 6 am next morning after taking dialysis to see that his assigned areas have smooth operations of tree cutting, road clearing and garbage lifting.
