Name: Kallesh Murashillin
Vote Count: 126
Source of Information: While working for an NGO, I visited the village of Mallasamudra and the local people told me about Dr Kallesh Murashillin.
Category: Healthcare
Reason(s) for Nomination: At a time when the cost of even basic healthcare is spiralling upwards all over India, Kallesh Murashillin is a doctor in the village of Mallasamudra in Karnataka who treats his patients for free. From those patients who feel awkward about accepting free treatment, he charges a token fee of just Rs. 10. He moves around on a cycle and says his decision to offer free treatment was triggered by the abject poverty he saw in Mallasamudra.
