The healer’s journey - Dr. K B Suryakumar
Venus circus fire issue in Srirampura,
Gangarams building collapse near current city center,
Tannery road arrack tragedy (ಕಳ್ಳ ಬಟ್ಟಿ ಸಾರಾಯಿ) leading to thousands of deaths in 1980s has one thing in common - Dr K B Suryakumar was the forensic expert in all these cases.
Dr Suryakumar uncle was also the personal physician to Field Marshal K M Cariappa, and his close proximity to the great soldier is well articulated in this book !
Being the foremost forensic expert in the government of Karnataka, he served in Coorg, Bangalore, Mangalore etc doing both forensic and regular practice for 4 decades and this book is a culmination of all his experiences where he upheld the ethics of his profession with a touch of humility!
He is not just a care giver, healer, doctor, forensic expert but a great human being and an amazing storyteller too. He was also my aunt Manjula Devi s classmate and classmate of Girijamma, the most celebrated Doctor and accomplished writer ✍️ in Karnataka.
He has written extensively for Kendasampige and other major newspapers of Karnataka in Kannada.
