Former Maharashtra minister and NCP leader Chhagan Bhujbal was admitted to a hospital in Mumbai on Thursday (September 26). According to the information from the leader's office, Bhujbal was brought to Mumbai from Pune by a special flight due to a sudden deterioration in his health. He has reportedly complaint of fever and throat infection after which he was rushed back to Mumbai from Pune. "His health is stable and people should not believe in rumours," the statement from his office said.
Moreover, Bhujbal, a prominent face of Maharashtra politics recently came under the scanner, after he ordered to reduce the volume of ‘Hanuman Chalisa’ playing in nearby locations while delivering a speech in Nashik on September 14. “The sound is so loud, how will I give my speech?" he said while asking the police to take note of the situation.
About the incident:
Bhujbal was addressing a public meeting in Nashik on Saturday when the Hanuman Aarti began, along with a loud recitation of the Hanuman Chalisa. Initially, Bhujbal was unsure of what was happening. A person standing next to him remarked, “Lord Bajrang Bali himself has come running for you.”
Bhujbal then asked, “Is the Aarti of Bajrang Bali going on?” To this, an NCP worker replied, “Not the Aarti, it’s the Hanuman Chalisa. The Aarti happens every day.” Bhujbal requested the authorities to lower the volume. Following his request, the sound of the Hanuman Chalisa was reduced.
