Kundapur, Oct 5: Renowned Ayurvedic Doctor Karunakar Nambiar(86), a resident of Koteshwar, near here passed away on Tuesday October 4, due to cardiac arrest.

Dr Karunakar Nambiar served the people in the neighbourhood of Koteshwar for 5 decades, at a time when the healthcare sector was least developed and there were no motorable roads.


He was the succor of poor patients.  His humanitarian deeds are ever fresh in the minds of locals, who drew the shutters of shops in Koteshwar locality, on Tuesday October 4, when the news of Dr Nambiar’s death spread.

Dr Nambiar is survived by his wife, two sons including medical practitioner and journalist Dr Sudhakar Nambiar and one daughter.

    During my school / college days when I was roaming around Koteshwar area, I used to see him regularly and a number of patients waiting for him in his shop at the corner of car street. Once or twice I also took medicine from him for gastric problem. At that time I don't think there was any hospital in and around Koteshwar. Only one government hospital in Kundapur. Dr. Nambiar used to treat hundreds of patients with his Ayurvedic medicine at a very very nominal cost or the poor people at no cost. He was such a kind hearted and a noble person.

    Now a days you will find dispensaries and private hospitals (literally money minting machines) in every nook and corner of Kundapur. But, those days poor people used to depend on Dr. Nambiar and he was the best and reliable Doctor.

    MAY HIS SOUL REST IN ETERNAL PEACE AND PARADISE.

    I hope his son Dr. Sudhakar Nambiar will continue in his father's foot prints and serve the downtroden in a noble way.

    Most repected person of Koteshwar. He treated all patients with a smile and spoke very little.

    MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE
