AIIMS Treats Young Doctor Critically Injured in J&K Attack
New Delhi: A 31-year-old ENT surgeon from Tamil Nadu who was critically injured in the recent Pahalgam terror attack is now in stable condition and has been shifted out of the ICU at AIIMS Trauma Centre, according to hospital sources.
Dr. Parmeswaran was shot in the neck and stomach during a terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, while vacationing with his wife, Dr. Nayanthara Aravind. The couple had travelled from their hometown in Kanchipuram for a short holiday when violence struck the region. In addition to the bullet wounds, Dr. Parmeswaran also suffered a fractured right arm.
After undergoing multiple emergency surgeries at Anantnag Medical College in Jammu & Kashmir, he was airlifted to AIIMS Delhi on April 22 for advanced critical care. He is currently undergoing physiotherapy and post-operative care at the AIIMS Jai Prakash Narayan Apex Trauma Centre in Delhi.
Medical Dialogues had previously reported that following the recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, a 31-year-old ENT surgeon from Tamil Nadu remains in critical condition at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi. In an official statement released, the hospital confirmed that the young doctor is on ventilatory support and under close observation in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

According to the Indian Express, “The doctors have been taking care of the wound in his right arm and abdomen. He is a young person, and good fitness and luck helped him survive,” said a doctor from the hospital.
Sources in the hospital said he is now undergoing physiotherapy to rebuild mobility. Physiotherapy began this morning, and efforts are currently focused on improving his mobility.
Lokmanya Tilak, the maternal uncle of Dr. Nayanthara Aravind, wife of Parmeswaran, stated that both the family and Dr. Nayanthara have been experiencing immense stress during this period. Speaking to the Indian Express, Tilak said, “Yet, she was the one who made him sit on a chair at one of the eateries (in Pahalgam) and sought help from the locals. With help from the local police, they got him to a hospital.”
