The doc who made himself immortal

 The news as well as social media is agog with stories how Dr Pradip Bhattacharya, hailing from Shyamnagar, West Bengal, sacrificed his own life treating covid patients recently.


Dr Bhattacharya stood by the adage-life should be BIG and not LONG. As a doctor, fearlessly committed to his duties and the hippocratic oath that he had once taken, he made himself available to once and all this pandemic even during the toughest period of lockdown not pulling shutters even once of his modest dispensary.


At last  the inevitable happened. The virus, as is its wont, invaded the doctor surreptitiously; the doctor who made many recover could not fight it himself. At last calm was written on his brow-once the last time. But what the doctor has  won is the belief that human life is more important and as a doctor it was his pristine duty to treat every patient even if it meant putting his own life in danger.


The sacrifice made and largesse shown by Dr Pradip Bhattacharya will reverberate not only in lanes and bye-lanes of Shyamnagar but also every street of india. 

RIP doc.
