Urgent Support Needed: Migrant Worker’s Life Hangs in the Balance After 4th-Floor Fall

On May 26th, 2024, 32-year-old Baskar Kalithash, an Indian national working in Singapore, suffered a life-threatening fall from the 4th floor of his dormitory. The tragic accident left him with multiple fractures and a severe spinal injury, requiring emergency surgery and a tracheostomy. Baskar’s condition remains critical, and he is currently in a high-dependency ward at National University Hospital (NUH), unable to speak or walk.

Despite undergoing urgent medical interventions, Baskar faces a long road to recovery, including at least six weeks of intensive rehabilitation. His medical expenses have already soared to SGD 180,000, with insurance covering only SGD 60,000, leaving a significant financial gap.
