I am deeply saddened to hear about the demise of Dr. Shanmugam, the former Director of Health Services, Andaman & Nicobar Administration.

Dr. Shanmugam, one of the notable persons of the Islands, was a remarkable individual known for his helping nature and unwavering dedication to his profession.

During his tenure as Director of Health Services, the Islands have experienced significant changes in the health sector and improvements in the lives of the islanders.

He was admired by many for his compassion, humility, and the positive impact he left behind. His contributions will be remembered forever.

I extend my heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones during this difficult time.

May his soul rest in eternal peace, and may his family find strength and solace in his cherished memories.
