AAP attacks BJP
Atishi’s cabinet colleague Saurabh Bhardwaj alleged that officials were deliberately not giving insulin to Kejriwal. Bhardwaj said in a post on ‘X’, ‘Today it became clear that the Chief Minister was right. He needed insulin, but officials of the BJP-led central government were deliberately not treating him. Tell me, BJP people, if there is no need for insulin then why are they giving it now? Because the whole world is sending curses on them.
What did Tihar tell?
A Tihar official said, ‘On the advice of doctors of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Kejriwal was given two units of low-dose insulin on Monday evening.’ He told that at around 7 pm the sugar level in his blood was found to be 217, after which the doctors taking care of him in Tihar decided to give him insulin. He said AIIMS experts, during a video conference with the chief minister on April 20, had advised Tihar doctors that if Kejriwal’s blood sugar level went above a certain level, he could be given insulin.
Meanwhile, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) sources said that Kejriwal’s blood sugar level had crossed 320 in Tihar. According to sources, this is the first time that Kejriwal was given insulin in jail, while the amount of sugar in his blood has been increasing for some time.
