#VaravaraRao
"We hope you will understand the anxiety of a family who is kept in dark for 12 days when a member is lodged in a hospital in a grave condition," the letter reads.
We have been calling Nanavati Hospital also every day since July 20, 2020 but received no response from them. We contacted the PRO of Nanavati Hospital on July 21, 2020. In response to our message to the hospital authorities (the PRO of Nanavati Hospital)...
With #VaraVaraRao testing positive for #COVID__19, it has exposed Vernon Gonzales to the virus as well. Before being brought to JJ Hospital, Rao hadn't even been able to brush on his own. Vernon was assisting him.

My report for @newsclickin
On July 15, when Rao's family visited him in the hospital, they found him lying "like an orphan" on a urine-soaked bed in the transit ward.
“The ward was stinking, and he was unattended,” his nephew Venugopal told me on the evening of July 15.

Is it too much to expect "mainstream media" to discuss the shameful treatment being meted out to #VaraVaraRao? Are they waiting for him to die?
#VaraVararao has been shifted to JJ Hospital. Hopefully, he won't be hurriedly discharged like he was 40 days ago.
#VaraVararao nephew N Venugopal has posted on Facebook that there was no official confirmation from the authorities. They got to know from a CPM leader.
Important:
#VaraVararao has been taken to JJ Hospital for tests. The results of the tests would determine whether they admit him or send him back to Taloja.

From Varavara Rao's Press Conference:
"Yesterday evening was a scary call. When Hemalata asked him how was he, he couldn't even understand the question, and started talking about his father's funeral, which happened 75 years ago."
This is scary. What have we done?
