London: Dr Rupendra Brahma, 74, who retired as head of psychiatry at Whipps Cross Hospital in 1993, is selling his South Woodford, a suburb in east London, home to help finance a clinic for the mentally ill in Kolkata.
Dr Brahma, who left for England in 1963, had promised his mother he would one day return to his native land to help the sick and needy. Now he has decided to live in Kolkata permanently.
Umanalini Mary Clinic and Research Institute, which has 20 inpatients and treats hundreds of others every year, is named after Dr Brahma?s wife Mary, who died of cancer at the age of 57 in 1998, and his mother, who passed away in 1985.
The doctor?s one bedroom flat in Hermon Hill, South Woodford, is on the market for ?189,950 (Rs 1.65 crore). The proceedings would be used to help pay for the clinic which he built in 1998 to honour his mother?s wish. [Source: Guardian]
