Entry of 15 MPs who came to meet Sonam Wangchuk banned, opposition leaders sitting on dharna outside Medanta Hospital

New Delhi: Several opposition MPs reached Gurugram’s Medanta Hospital on Tuesday to meet social activist and educationist Sonam Wangchuk, but the police did not allow them to enter. After this, there was an uproar outside the hospital for a long time, after which the MPs raised questions on the decision of the police and called it wrong.

Why were the MPs refused to meet?

According to the information, about 15 opposition MPs had reached the hospital to inquire about the well being of Sonam Wangchuk. However, the police stopped them from going inside the hospital. Officials said that as per hospital rules, at present only close family members are allowed to meet the patient. Police told the MPs that if they wish, they can meet Wangchuk’s wife Gitanjali, but they cannot be allowed to meet the patient.

AAP leader Sanjay Singh got angry

Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh became angry with this decision of the police and sat on strike at the main gate of the hospital. During this, he also had a heated argument with the police officers. Sanjay Singh said that this is a private hospital, so why is there talk of permission to meet a patient. His allegation was that opposition MPs were being stopped without any concrete reason.

MP raised questions on police action

Samajwadi Party MP Priya Saroj also raised questions on the police action. She said that until she is allowed to meet Sonam Wangchuk, she will remain sitting outside the hospital. He claimed that some other leaders before him were allowed to enter the hospital, but opposition MPs were being treated differently. After this, he has also demanded the police to make the medical protocol public.

Video surfaced on social media

A video of this entire incident has also surfaced, in which Sanjay Singh, Priya Saroj and other MPs are seen talking to the police outside the hospital and asking for permission to go inside. At present, the hospital administration and police say that the meeting with the patient will be conducted as per the rules of the hospital and as per the advice of the doctors. At the same time, after this incident, the matter has also taken a political color and reactions of different parties are coming to the fore.
