In a developing controversy, Dr. Nitin Dighe has raised suspicions regarding the medical reports of activist Sonam Wangchuk released by Safdarjung Hospital. The reports indicate a deficiency in potassium, which contradicts Dr. Dighe's findings from a blood sample taken earlier that day, showing normal potassium levels.
Dr. Dighe, expressing concerns about denied access to Wangchuk, plans to conduct an independent test. Meanwhile, Wangchuk's wife, Gitanjali J Angmo, has formally requested his discharge due to mistrust in the government facility, seeking to move him to a different hospital.
Wangchuk, previously on a 20-day hunger strike demanding action against alleged exam irregularities, was moved to the hospital under police and court orders. Despite his condition showing dehydration, he refuses intravenous treatment, continuing to draw attention amid planned protests by his wife.
