The founder of One Rupee Clinic, Dr Rahul Ghule, has been admitted to the hospital as he claims to have consumed 30 tablets. He is currently undergoing treatment and his condition is reported to be stable.
The doctor himself took to Twitter to inform his followers and alleged that he was under political pressure.
"I'm admitted in hospital under the stress of 30 tablets consumption due to political pressure," said Ghule sharing his photo from the hospital bed.
He has alleged that some political agents, some reporters took INR 29 lakhs from him and insisted that he invest INR 1 crore in Aapla Davakhana. Ghule went into depression due to all this. Hence, Ghule took 30 pills at a time. As a result, his condition deteriorated and he was admitted to the hospital.
Moreover, he alleged that they were asking for more money in the name of TMC officers to clear bills of Balasaheb Thackeray's initiative Aapla Davakhana. However, there are no bill payments from TMC for six months and that would lead anyone to take an extreme step, even consider suicide, he wrote on Twitter. "Thane supremo knows everything.. There is no justice to me. I have a small family. I request don't harass them. Keep our hard-earned money to you all (sic)," he added.
One Rupee Clinics have been set up at various stations on the Central Railway line to provide medical treatment to the railway commuters as well as the general public. They provide subsidised treatment to people where the cost of tests and treatment are a fraction of what it would cost in a private facility elsewhere
Notably, for the past few days, Rahul Ghule had been tweeting allegations of pressure from political agents for money. It was also said that his life was in danger. He had also sought the help of Prime Minister Narendra Modi for this. However, for his family's safety, Dr Ghule deleted the tweets.
