Nirmala Mishra

প্রয়াত সঙ্গীতশিল্পী নির্মলা মিশ্র। বাড়িতে হৃদরোগ আক্রান্ত হয়ে মৃত্যু হয়। রাত ১২টা নাগাদ চেতলার বাড়িতে তাঁর মৃত্যু হয়। মৃত্যুকালে তাঁর বয়স হয়েছিল ৮১ বছর।

রাতে তাঁর দেহ সার্দান অ্যাভিনিউতে একটি নার্সিং হোমে রাখা থাকবে। রবিবার সকাল ১০টা নাগাদ দেহ রবীন্দ্রসদনে নিয়ে যাওয়া হবে বলে জানা গিয়েছে। শিল্পীর চিকিৎসক কৌশিক চক্রবর্তী জানিয়েছেন, দীর্ঘ দিন ধরে তিনি অসুস্থ ছিলেন। চিকিৎসার জন্য গত ৫ বছরে বেশ কয়েকবার হাসপাতালে ভর্তিও হয়েছিলেন। তিনবার হৃদরোগে আক্রান্তও হয়েছিলেন। কিন্তু আর তিনি হাসপাতালে যেতে চাইছিলেন না। শনিবার রাতে তাঁর শ্বাসকষ্ট দেখা দেয়, এর পরই তিনি মারা যান।
