Odisha Health minister Naba Kishore Das on Tuesday said conjoined twins - Jaga and Kalia - who were separated after a surgery two years ago would be shifted to SCB Medical College Hospital, Cuttack from AIIMS, New Delhi.

The twins, who were born with their heads joined, are presently under the treatment of a team of specialist doctors at AIIMS, New Delhi since their separation in a marathon 12- hour surgery in October 25, 2017.

All arrangements are in place at the SCB Medical College Hospital in Cuttack for proper treatment of Jaga and Kalia, he said adding that "Jaga-Kalia will be admitted in the neurosurgery ward of SCB Medical College Hospital."
