Father Vijay A. Bhat has been named as a new director in St. Joseph Hospital in Bhilai Pahari.
Based on the decision of Bishop Felix Toppo, Father Edward was transferred into St. Mary's parish (formerly Father George Mannarakam), and Father Vijay A. Bhat was called to his place.
P. Bhat previously headed the Damien Social Welfare Center in Dhanbad. This center is focused on the holistic care of lepers as well as on health education and other social and educational programs. So, Bhat has experience that can only help him in his new mission.
