India: Ham radio operators help reunite family

Good news from India published on thehindu.com:

On August 16, a few policemen arrived at the house of Vadamalai Raman
in village Purandarai located in Villupuram district of Tamil Nadu
with photographs of a patient who has been staying at the Bangaon
Subdivisional Hospital in West Bengal for over two years.

Vadamalai’s mother, Misiyammal, identified the person in the

operators (amateur radio operators) the breakthrough was made.
