Bulandshahr News: For the poor, the government has made treatment facilities available under Ayushman Yojana for treatment up to Rs 5 lakh. For major treatment, there is a facility of treatment on the recommendation of MP MLA from CM and PM Relief Fund. But how can this disease be treated, how can the 17 crores engine be given to the innocent Duggu of Syana so that he can get well, can stand and walk on his own, can read and write with his hands. Duggu’s parents claim that their innocent son has a disease called “Osteogenesis Imperfection Type-B”. Which has no cure in India. Only an engine worth 17 crores from abroad can give life to Duggu. That’s why Now, Duggu’s Dalit parents have appealed to PM Modi and CM Yogi to get their son treated as well. Is there no treatment for Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type-B in India?
Actually, auto driver Akash Gautam, who lives in Syana of Bulandshahr district, has two sons. The younger son Duggu is 3 years and 10 months old. He is suffering from a fatal disease called Osteogenesis Imperfecta type B. It is said that in this disease, the bones of the child do not develop, and due to this disease, the bones of the child become weak, that is why Duggu can neither sit nor stand. It is as if the hands and legs are hanging from the joints.
Innocent Duggu seems mentally ill, he understands the questions and answers them properly. But he cannot stand on his own. Duggu cannot go to school due to his illness. But he still has to face the Prime Minister of the country, the CM of UP, the Constitution. The names of the creator Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar and Savitri Bai Phule who lit the flame of women’s education are well known. Not only this, innocent Duggu has appealed to PM Modi that the government should also get him treated, so that he can also stand on his own feet and grow up to serve the society and the nation.
Duggu’s father even sold his auto to test the treatment of his son, now along with the treatment of Duggu, the crisis of daily bread has also started to arise for the family. Although Mukesh manages to arrange for two meals a day by driving an e-rickshaw, but he is disappointed about the treatment of his son.
According to Akash, when Duggu was born, he had difficulty in breathing, after keeping him on oxygen for about 2 hours continuously, Duggu regained breath. A wave of happiness ran in the family. The father told that during that time he was crying more than other newborns. Three days later, when the family saw Duggu, marks of injury were visible on his body. When he was more than one and a half years old, Duggu started speaking but he was still not able to sit. Since then till today he is neither able to sit nor stand. Both the parents are illiterate, so no one in the world tells them about Duggu’s disease or its treatment. However, they have met many people who claimed that Duggu’s treatment is possible but its cost is in crores. Now you can understand how Akash, an auto driver living in a one room house under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, will be able to get his son treated.
