As #JusticeForRohitSardana is spreading like wildfire on Twitter, netizens demand a probe on prominent journalist Rohit Sardana’s death due to COVID infection. They have claimed that his death was not solely due to COVID, and accuse the hospital administration’s negligence towards his treatment to have been the main cause of his death.
Several BJP leaders have been tweeting in support of this call for probe by netizens and have been questioning the cause of his death. BJP spokesperson Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga tweeted, “Brother Rohit Sardana was administered an injection, which did not suit his body. No senior doctor was present at the time of his treatment. There needs to be a probe whether this is a case of medical negligence. #JusticeForRohitSardana”
BJP MLA Sanju Devi had also tweeted saying, “I demand high-level investigation against Metro Hospital, Noida for medical negligence in Rohit Sardana’s death.”
Rohit had tested positive for COVID on a few days ago and succumbed to the virus by dying of a heart attack on Friday. OpIndia reported that while the possibility of ‘medical negligence’ cannot be ruled out in the untimely demise of prominent news anchor Rohit Sardana, research shows that chances of death are higher for a Covid infected patient if he suffers a heart attack.
