"People who suffer from complete paralysis of the lower half of the body could get a second lease of life, thanks to a path breaking stem cell treatment being offered by a hospital here."
--------------------
The above is the first paragraph of your article. People reading this article sitting in a different corner of the globe should assume "here" means where, in India and if in India where in India? India is not a small country. Can't you be more specific of the place, so people can figure out where it is?

Thanks

'Here' does mean Chennai, India. However some caution needs to be practised as these claims cannot be substantiated. News like this does sometimes provide hope to people who are suffering from similar condition. However international trials have so far haven't provided any results to beleive these claims. We are still in infancy of stem cell research.
