Daughter of Charity Sister Enedina, a 98 year old Spanish national, is set to return to her home country after 48 years of service in Odisha as her application seeking Indian citizenship was declined. She graduated in MBBS from a medical college, Madrid, Spain’s capital, in 1959 and worked a few months in a nursing home there.

Speaking of the nun’s great contribution to the local people, Vincentian Father Naresh Nayak, said, “A true Daughter of Charity of St Vincent De Paul. The people of Odisha will never forget her love and service.”
