    “As an Oral & Maxillo-Facial Surgeon, I have managed the time to return to my old working place at Tripura Medical College & Dr. BRAM Teaching Hospital, Hapania to treat a patient with Rt. Sub-Condylar fracture(#).

    The patient is an MBBS doctor and was my student and he met an accident (RTA) while driving a two-wheeler,” the Tripura CM said.

    He further said the procedure was successful and went smoothly and he will be following up with the patient.
