Following the state government’s intervention and funding, they underwent a complicated surgery for 21 hours in All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi in October 2017. They stayed in the AIIMS for two years to enable the doctors to keep an eye on the progress of their health condition before coming to Odisha in 2019.
They were undergoing treatment in SCB Hospital. But the health condition of Kalia started deteriorating in the last few months. However, the doctors in the hospital said the condition of Jaga was stable.
