Janakpurdham, June 26
The Province 2 government has decided to provide Rs 500,000 as relief support to the family of Raju Sada, who died of diarrhoea for want of treatment while waiting for his coronavirus test report.
Provincial Internal Affairs and Law Minister Gyanendra Yadav said the support will be provided as the interim relief to the family. He says an investigation team formed by the government has already begun its assignment, assuring anyone found guilty in the case will be punished.
The 16-year-old was working as a sole bread-winner for the family in Ahmedabad of India. He had returned home on May 16. He had diarrhoea while staying in a quarantine camp, and was taken to the Provincial Hospital in Janakpurdham for treatment.
His swab samples were collected for a coronavirus test, but he died on Monday while waiting for the report. Later, he tested negative for the virus.
