Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal lost only 2 kg in prison and his health was being regularly monitored by a medical board of AIIMS, Tihar jail authorities said on Monday, refuting as “false” and “misleading” claims by Aam Aadmi Party that his health was deteriorating.
However, senior AAP leader and Delhi minister Atishi in a press conference again alleged that the BJP was trying to cause permanent physical damage to Kejriwal and his blood sugar dropped to 50 mg/ dL five times. She claimed he could slip into a coma.
The BJP claimed that whenever a court hearing in Kejriwal’s case is close, the AAP leaders resort to “rhetoric” about medical issues so that he can get bail.
Atishi had on Sunday claimed that Kejriwal, who was a diabetic, faced an acute health risk due to “unexplained weightloss of 8.5 kg” and dangerously low sugar levels.
