Manmohan Singh

Damandeep Singh, daughter of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, on Friday, accused Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya of bringing a photographer inside the hospital ward of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi against the wishes of her family.

Daman said her mother was extremely upset because a photographer had entered the room along with Mandaviya. Despite her insistence that the photographer must leave the room, ‘she was completely ignored.

Speaking about her parents, Daman said, She (Daman’s mother) was very upset. My parents are trying to cope in a difficult situation. They are elderly people. Not animals in a zoo.

It was nice of the health minister to visit and express his concern. However, my parents were in no state to be photographed at the time. My mother insisted that the photographer should leave the room, she was completely ignored. She was very upset, said Daman.

The veteran Congress leader was rushed to the AIIMS on Wednesday evening after complaining of fever and weakness, which was later diagnosed as dengue. Daman said her father was stable, but had low immunity.

While Nation Next has access to the photos clicked by Mandaviya, some of which were also circulated on social media, the publication won’t be publishing the same as the family has clearly expressed displeasure of sharing the same on public platforms.
