New Delhi: Doctors on Friday advised sacked minister Kapil Mishra to get admitted in hospital as his condition weakened on the third day of his indefinite hunger strike, but the suspended AAP leader was adamant about continuing and has also promised another “expose” against the AAP on Sunday.
Doctors who did his health check-up sounded a warning, saying that Mishra’s blood sugar level had come down to 81 mg/dl from 87 mg/dl on Thursday.
The doctors advised Mishra to get admitted so that drips could be started to provide necessary fluids to the body and save him from dehydration and maintain his blood pressure and blood sugar levels.
Mishra, however, declined their advise.
The suspended Aam Aadmi Party leader has been on hunger strike since Wednesday at his official residence, demanding Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal reveal the source of funding of foreign trips of five AAP leaders – Sanjay Singh, Ashish Khetan, Satyendar Jain, Raghav Chadhha and Durgesh Pathak – in the last two years.
Mishra was removed as a Delhi minister on Saturday and later suspended from the AAP after he levelled corruption allegations against Kejriwal.
Despite his failing health, in the evening Mishra went to Mahatma Gandhi’s Samadhi in Rajghat and meditated there for some time. He also got emotional at the venue and told media that he would visit Hanuman Temple on Saturday to seek Lord Hanuman’s blessings and make an “expose” against the AAP on Sunday.
