Mysuru: A poor girl, suffering from bone marrow disease, was helped by Mysuru-Kodagu MP Pratap Simha in getting financial aid to undergo surgery.
Baby Syeda Nabiha, daughter of Syed Madni Ahmed, a resident of Kesare, was suffering from bone marrow disease and was undergoing treatment at Narayana Hrudayalaya in Bengaluru. The doctors there told Ahmed that the girl required a surgery to get rid of the disease. As the family was financially poor, they approached MP Pratap Simha for help.
The MP, who responded immediately, helped them get Rs. 3 lakh from Prime Minister’s Relief Fund, following which the girl underwent successful bone marrow transplantation surgery at the hospital.
