Man Loses Life due to tight security for Prime Minister
Chandigarh: On Tuesday Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s tight security led to the lost of the life of a family’s sole breadwinner.
The Prime was about to visit Chandigarh as a chief guest for the 30th convocation of the Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER).
Kidney patient Sumit Prakash Verma, 32, reached PGIMER in a critical condition but was denied entry and shuttled from one gate to another for an hour, his family said. This even as the PM professed “service to the poorest” inside the Bhargava auditorium.
According to one of the Victim’s relative ‘Neeraj Verma’ “The security men didn’t allow us to enter and asked us to go to Gate 2, from Gate 2 they asked us to go to Gate 1. There we were not allowed in again.”
Verma was declared brought dead when they finally reached Emergency.
“At no point of time was any hospital facility closed.” This was the reply given by PGIMER spokesperson Manju Wadwalkar.
Meanwhile PM’s Office said “It is saddened at the death of a patient during the visit of the Prime Minister “
