Bihu committee to fund woman's kidney transplant

Guwahati: Choosing compassion over celebration, a Bihu committee in Assam's Lakhimpur district has donated its festival funds to support a woman's kidney transplant procedure. Uttar Purbanchal Sanskritik Committee, which has been organising Rongali Bihu celebrations since the 1970s, is known in North Lakhimpur for hosting one of the most vibrant and community-driven festivals in the area every year, except this year. This time, they chose to forgo the festivities and instead redirect the collected donations for a more meaningful endeavour by supporting the treatment of a 30-year-old woman, Pallabi Gogoi of Ahuchual Gogoi, secretary of the committee, said Pallabi is battling a critical health condition. Operation Sindoor PM Modi meets NSA, chiefs of armed forces amid spike in tensions with Pak India's air defence systems shoot down Pak drones in J&K, Punjab & Rajasthan Several airports in India to be closed till May 15 - check list In the month of Feb, it was revealed that both her kidneys have failed."Bihu comes every year, but for Pallabi, time may not be on her side. When our members learned about her condition, celebrating amid such suffering didn't feel right. We came together and unanimously decided to donate the festival funds to support her treatment and give her a second chance," said Gogoi. Gogoi added that Pallabi lives with her mother Podumi and elder sister Dipsikha. Their mother works at local service centres and has been struggling to make ends meet while trying to cover the mounting medical expenses. Her mother has come forward to donate one of her kidneys, but the cost of the transplant is too high for the family to afford. He said while the committee has already donated a significant amount, the woman's treatment requires much more, and her family is still in urgent need for financial support.
