When Deputy Chief Minister Laxman Savadi heard of Anand’s condition, he helped in shifting him to Bengaluru from Miraj. Doctors, however, said that the patients condition is critical.

Savadi helped the family members to shift the patient to Bengaluru by ambulance on Saturday and started the treatment for the patient. Savadi also covered the treatment expenses of the patient from his pocket.
