A 2-year-old child from Kancheepuram district in Tamil Nadu fell seriously ill while on a flight with her family traveling from San Francisco to Chennai.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin, on Friday, pledged ₹10 lakh to facilitate the transfer of a 2-year-old child currently receiving medical treatment in Turkey back to Chennai via an air ambulance.
In a statement released by the Tamil Nadu Department of Information and Public Relations, it was mentioned that the child’s parents had exhausted their savings in providing emergency medical care for their daughter. As a result, Chief Minister Stalin took the initiative to allocate 10 lakhs for the air ambulance transfer from Turkey to Chennai.
The Welfare Board for Non-Resident Tamils has initiated the necessary arrangements for relocating the child from Turkey to Chennai.
The 2-year-old child, the daughter of Manoj from Tamil Nadu’s Kancheepuram district, fell critically ill while on a flight from San Francisco to Chennai. The plane had to make an emergency landing in Turkey, where the child is currently undergoing treatment at an Istanbul hospital. In light of the parents’ request, they sought assistance from Chief Minister Stalin to facilitate the child’s transfer to Chennai for further medical care.
