An officer of jail told that Joshi is walking in jail without any assistance and is okay as of now. Jail hospital physician Dr PR Sharma has medically examined her and she is okay. Joshi, accused in a disproportionate assets case, had surrendered before the local court after dodging police for over ten months. In her bail plea, filed through her counsel Pratul Shandilya, she had requested that she was scheduled to undergo hysterectomy (surgical removal of uterus) at the Government Medical College in Udaipur.
Shandilya had told the court that if Joshi did not get medical attention, her ailment could develop into uterus cancer. He said his client was serious and suffers from a heart ailment as well. However, the additional district and sessions judge DP Mishra turned down her bail plea and asked her to undergo treatment in the jail hospital here. She had reached in the court in an ambulance which she had hired from a private hospital and was assisted by nurses. She and her husband Arvind Joshi, also an IAS officer, were dismissed from service last year and the latter is yet to be arrested.
