Bhiwani (Haryana), May 16
Over 30 people have died in Union minister VK Singh’s ancestral village Bapora in the past two weeks, its sarpanch said Sunday as the unusually high number of deaths raised concerns that COVID-19 could be the cause.
Village head Naresh Kumar said many of these people had showed symptoms of the disease, but only three tested positive.
“They had symptoms like fever and cough but did not get themselves tested. So, the real cause behind their deaths remains unknown,” he said.
He said many of them were elderly.
District authorities have stationed an ambulance in the village in Bhiwani district and have screened all residents for the disease, an official said.
