Abstract:
Soumitra Mandal, a 28-year-old from Gosaba in the Sunderbans, will be there anytime anyone needs oxygen in any of the nine islands in the area. He carries an oxygen concentrator on the back of his bicycle and goes from village to village to help people (mostly COVID patients) who are in need of oxygen but cannot get to a hospital immediately from these remote areas.
