Stroke patient from Abu Dhabi back in Nadia after help from local people
The Statesman Kolkata
|May 24, 2025
Samir Bala, a 58-year-old carpenter from Hashkhali area in Nadia district, suffered a severe cerebral attack in Abu Dhabi in 2021 and was admitted to the critical care unit (CCU) of a hospital in the capital city of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
He used to work in a company in Dubai in 2014 and later transferred to another unit in Abu Dhabi in 2019.
Samir had been undergoing treatment in the CCU of the Abu Dhabi hospital, almost in a dying condition for more than four years, but the company allegedly didn't provide any financial support for his prolonged treatment.
Frustrated with the gradual deterioration of her husband's health condition in Abu Dhabi and an unbearable burden, Sabita Bala desperately tried to bring him back to their Hashkhali home but failed initially.
Sabita met senior officials in Nadia district administrations and political leaders belonging to both ruling Trinamul Congress and opposition parties, but no one could show her a way out so that she could get her husband back for treatment in a state government hospital in Nadia.
