In an age when everyone enjoys life with family and children, an ill fated man has been leading a cursed life confined to his house.
His poor family of Dumalpali village in Kantamaal block in Boudh district has been running from pillar to post to seek help for treatment of 30-year-old Bhaskar Kalse, who is afflicted with urological disease since 2014.
After spending whatever he could afford for Bhaskar's treatment,his wife Bhargabi Kalse is looking for assistance from the administration.
The family needs financial assistance for going for a higher therapy forthedisease that could save Bhaskar’s life and make it normal.
“My husband was normal. In 2009 while going to take wood to the nearby forest, a big tree had fallen on his waist. Initially, there were no complications but unfortunately after some years his body became inactive. Subsequently, the body became slim day by day,” said Bhaskar’s wife Bhargavi. Forget normal life, even eating, sleeping and sitting is painful for him. However, Bhaskar's weak body prevents him from leading a normal life. He is always found sitting alone.
“I wish I could live like my friends and lead a normal life with my own family,” said Bhaskar.
She brought him tomany hospitals of Burla, Sonepur, Boudhbut nothing changed his health.
Moreover, Bhargavi's family is having all the criteria to avail the benefit under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY).They are of BPL category. Now they only have a ration card and a health card under other schemes.
Meanwhile, locals have urged the administration to make arrangements for Bhaskar’s treatment.
