Taking to his Twitter handle, Das said, “It is very sad that there is no hospital in Odisha for liver transplantation. Patients from the state are going to other States for treatment. Most of the doctors treating the patients in other States are from Odisha.”

“If the Odia doctors have earned name and fame by doing such good works outside the state, why it cannot be done in Odisha,” he questioned.

Das took to the micro blogging platform to express his annoyance hours after ailing actor Pintu Nanda was flown to Delhi from Bhubaneswar yesterday for transplantation of liver at Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences (ILBS).

It is to be noted here that Sritam Das played a vital role in raising funds for the treatment of Pintu Nanda, who needs more than Rs 50 lakh to undergo treatment for liver cirrhosis disease and liver transplantation.
