The ILS in the press statement said that Biswabandhu Sen, 70, was brought to ILS Hospital, Agartala, on the evening of 8th August 2025 after suddenly losing consciousness while waiting to travel in a train at Agartala railway station.
“He had first been taken to TMC Hospital, where scans revealed an internal brain haemorrhage with significant compression. Later, with several considerations, he was transferred to ILSA Hospital on the same day. Recognising the seriousness of the situation, ILSA medical team in a very short time got ready and prepared him for an emergency brain surgery to relieve the pressure and remove the blood collection without delay and reducing the possibility of further damage to the brain. The procedure was successfully carried out, and Mr. Sen was shifted to the Surgical Intensive Care Unit for advanced post-operative care”, the statement said.
It said that on 9th August, Biswabandhu Sen remained on ventilator support with stable vital parameters. His neurological responses showed some movement, and his pupils were reactive to light, though sluggish. Overnight, his blood pressure stayed within a stable range, with systolic readings between 130-150 mm Hg and diastolic readings between 80-85 mmHg. His oxygen levels and blood gas reports were satisfactory, and his urine output remained adequate.
“Today morning, 10th August, through the good offices of Chief Minister, two highly qualified experts-Dr. Rajesh Kumar Singh, Neurologist and Dr. Ramesh Sharanappa Doddamani, Neurosurgeon from AIIMS Delhi have visited the patient for an expert opinion. They thoroughly examined the patient, reviewed his case with team of treating doctors, and also reviewed a fresh CT scan. The experts confirmed that the initial management and timely brain decompression surgery had been appropriately and adequately performed as per universal clinical protocols, and commended the quality of care provided at Agartala so far. As reported the new scan revealed probable fresh bleeding in the left fronto-temporo-parietal region, as well as in the right centrum semi-ovale, body of the right caudate nucleus, and areas of subarachnoid haemorrhage”, it said.
The ILS said that while his vital functions are being supported and our multidisciplinary team is providing all possible care, the overall prognosis remains guarded and uncertain.

Even under these circumstances, the family members have expressed their wish to transfer Mr. Sen to Aster CMI Hospital, Hebbal, Bengaluru for better treatment. In coordination with the State Government, ILSA hospital is taking all necessary steps to collaborate, cooperate and facilitate the transfer by airlifting the patient for his journey to outside the State as per the family’s wish”, it added.
