The Telangana NRI Advisory Committee, under Mandha Bheem Reddy, liaised with Fly Dubai and embassy channels. The airline confirmed that Baba had collapsed in the airport terminal and was rushed to Rashid Hospital.

Volunteers from Nizamabad, Nayeem and Kottala Nara Goud, are providing on-ground help, keeping in touch with hospital staff and the family. The government officials and community groups are working together to arrange his medical repatriation once his health allows.
