He also extended his gratitude to fellow MLAs and MDCs who visited him during his stay at Dr. H. Gordon Roberts Hospital in Shillong, where he had been receiving treatment for nearly a month before being referred to Vellore for specialised care.
Nongrum concluded by thanking his well-wishers and friends for their prayers and support during his recovery. It may be mentioned that to ensure timely and specialised treatment, the MLA was transported by ambulance to Umroi Airport and then airlifted via air ambulance to CMC Vellore.
