Siddapur/Virajpet, Oct. 12: MLA Ponnanna, who recently helped provide proper treatment to a resident of Chennayankaote near Palibetta in Virajpet taluk, when he fell ill, was felicitated and honored by the family of the MLA at the MLA's home office today.
When a resident of Chennayankaote, Annapappa, was taken to a private hospital in Mysore for treatment after he was found to have a swelling in his throat, the doctors there informed him that a cancerous tumor had grown in his throat and that surgery would be necessary. The surgery would cost an estimated Rs. 8 lakh.
Immediately, Annapappa's brother Manikantha informed Virajpet Block Congress President Pattada Ranji Poonachha, Kundachira Manju Devaiah and local Congress leaders and approached MLA Ponnanna. The MLA had immediately spoken to the higher authorities of the hospital and instructed them to perform the surgery.
He asked them to pay the money required for the surgery through the Ayushman Bharat and Arogya Karnataka schemes. As per the MLA's instructions, social activist Chokanda Sanju Subbaiah was given the full responsibility of this treatment.
