Help Archana



This is the worst thing that could ever happen to a parent. It is a sad and heart throbbing incident happened in Murray, KY on Nov 12, 2010. Twin sisters Archana and Arpana Gambiraopet doing their MS in Chemistry at Murray University, KY have met with an accident involving a truck.Friday late night Arpana succumbed at the hospital. Archana is in a critical condition at Vanderbilt Medical Centre Trauma unit. She had a surgery done on Saturday morning, but due to the major injury to the spinal cord she has been paralyzed below her shoulders.

We are very thankful to Telugu Association of North America (TANA) for helping us in getting Arpana's body to their parents in Hyderabad.

We know that there is nothing anyone can do to lighten their parents heart, but we can help them to meet their medical expenses. As they were to graduate this December, they did not renew their health insurance.

We humbly request you to generously donate for this noble cause. We greatly appreciate every contribution you make.

We learned that some people had concerns sending money to the family friend Murali Kondur. So, we have set up a new account in the name of twins’ dad, Ravinder Gambiraopet.

  1. Very sorry to hear this.. Sad indeed! Isn't the truck driver responsible for this horrible accident held accountable? Or was it a hit and run? From what I understand, this was a rear ending accident. Which means the truck's insurance company should pay for all the expenses incurred! How are they washing their hands off this case so easily?!

  6. @kalyan: From the news story it seems that the person driving the car the sisters were in is at fault. The story says he failed to yield to the vehicle that hit them and took a left turn in front of them. Sad incident whatever the reason :(
