Congress party's Rajya Sabha MP Phulo Devi Netam was on Friday taken away in an ambulance from Parliament after she felt dizzy and fell. When the incident happened, she was protesting in the Well of the House over the NEET issue. She has been admitted to RML Hospital. The doctors at the RML hospital said that the MP has been discharged and is now recovering well.
As soon as the upper House re-assembled after recess, a number of Opposition members, including Congress member Phulo Devi Netam, trooped into the well of the House shouting slogans against the government and demanding a discussion on alleged irregularities in NEET.
Vice President Jagdeep Dhankar, who saw Netam fainting, asked fellow members to help her and adjourned the House till 2.30 pm. She was then taken to RML Hospital in an ambulance.
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, who visited Netam in the hospital said a CT-SCAN will be done on her and more medical investigations will be carried out in the next few days. “I hope she will be alright today, but she has to undergo a complete medical examination,” he said.
