BJP leader and Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ was rushed to the New Delhi facility of All India Institute Of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) on Tuesday due to post-covid complications, reports claimed.
Quoting AIIMS officials, the News Agency ANI said that the Union Minister was admitted to the top medical facility following post-Covid complications today.
The Minister visited the AIIMS, over one month after testing positive for the novel Coronavirus. He had come in contact with the deadly virus on April 21 and recovered from the virus later.
Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ was admitted to AIIMS at the time, when he was supposed to take a call on Class 12 Board exams as the Supreme Court is scheduled to hear a petition on the exams on the 3rd of June.
To decide on the exams, the Union Minister sought inputs and suggestions from the States/Union Territories on whether to suspend the exams given the Covid scare. We have to wait and see, what decision will the Centre take on board exams as the Minister was admitted to AIIMS.
