A 23‑month‑old girl from Tripura, Manashree, is undergoing treatment at AIIMS while her relatives launch a ₹16 crore fundraising drive to cover the costs.
Manashree, a 23‑month‑old child from Tripura, has been admitted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi for treatment of a serious medical condition. The young patient’s case has drawn attention due to the high cost of specialized care required.
Her family has initiated a fundraising campaign aiming to collect ₹16 crore, a sum they say is essential to meet the projected medical expenses and related support services. The drive is being promoted through social media and local community networks, urging donors across the country to contribute.
AIIMS officials have confirmed that the hospital is providing the necessary clinical support, but have highlighted that many families face financial challenges when accessing advanced treatments. The Manashree case underscores the broader issue of healthcare affordability in India, especially for families from remote states like Tripura.
