‘Neha was absolutely fine last night’
The news of Neha Arora’s death due to a “sudden collapse” in the bathroom of Deep Nursing Home on Friday morning, as claimed by her in-laws, not only came as a shock for her mother who had attended to her till Thursday night, but her gynaecologist too failed to point towards any medical complication to be the cause behind her death. Amid several unanswered questions, doctors and nurses of the hospital said Neha was recovering well and did not have any post-delivery complications. “One member of our family or the other was always with Neha over the last two days and it was only last night that we left her under the care of her in-laws,” her father Ramesh Mago said. Gynaecologist Dr Aruna Dhar, who was handling Neha’s case, said: “She had given birth to a baby girl after a caesarean operation two days ago and was recovering well. She was absolutely fine when I last attended to her around 8.30 last evening. At 6 am, her blood pressure and temperature was checked by a nurse, which was recorded as normal. Neha did not suffer from any complication whatsoever.” She added that it was difficult to say what made her collapse in the bathroom following which she died. Dr Dhar, however, pointed out that there was no medical reason known to her which might have led to Neha’s sudden collapse and death. —Sameer Kumar Sharma
