Deepika Singh of ‘Diya Aur Baati Hum’ fame pleads with Delhi CM after mother contracts virus
‘Diya Aur Baati Hum’ star Deepika Singh has pleaded with Delhi Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal for help after her mother tested positive for coronavirus.
SpotBoye reports that the actor’s family is yet to receive a hard-copy of the results and thus delaying the course of treatment. Singh posted an emotional video on Instagram seeking help.
Singh says, “It’s a request message to Delhi Government and Arvind Kejriwal Ji. My 59-year-old mother has tested positive. Her test was done 5 days back but we received the result today and that too not a hard copy. My father was told to just click a picture and with that, we can’t admit her to any of the hospitals. I stay here in Mumbai and have a small child due to which I can’t travel to Delhi. She had a fever and had no other symptoms of COVID-19. But now as she stays in a joint family where 45 people stay together along with my grandmother, who is also facing breathing issues now. My father too is suspected. My younger sister was taking care of them since yesterday so we don’t know if she is also affected. We really need to get all of their tests done”.
She added, “We have been suggested to keep her isolated at home but at the same time her chest X-ray has to be done. So staying at home we are not clear how will that be possible. She is feeling extremely weak and she needs urgent treatment but we have no source not are we getting any guidance. We are trying for a private hospital. But they are saying there are no beds keep her home and treat but it’s not safe to keep her home as there are 45 other members staying with her. I really need help please help us”.
