'Condition Very Serious': Ex-Jammu And Kashmir Governor Satyapal Malik Gives Health Update On Social Media

Former Jammu and Kashmir Governor and veteran politician, Satyapal Malik on Sunday gave an update about his health and said it was "very serious". He also gave a mobile number for people to contact him, if they wish to know about his health. Malik had been suffering from kidney problems for the past sometime and was admitted to a hospital last month.

In a post on X in Hindi, he said, "Condition very serious. Contact number - 96105 44972."

On Saturday, he shared a long post on X and shared his view on the chargesheet the CBI has filed against him in connection with the Kiru Hydro Electric Project corruption case.

"Hello, friends. I have been admitted to the hospital for the last month and am suffering from kidney problems. I was fine since the day before yesterday morning, but today again I had to be shifted to the ICU. My condition is becoming very serious," he said.

"Whether I live or not, I want to tell the truth to my countrymen. When I was on the post of Governor, I was offered bribes of Rs. 150-150 crores, but I continued to work honestly like my political guru, farmer messiah late Chaudhary Charan Singh ji and he could never shake my integrity," he added.

Claiming that the government was trying to find ways to trap him in a false chargesheet, he said, "I myself had cancelled the tender in which they want to trap me. I myself had told the Prime Minister that there was corruption in this case and after telling him, I myself cancelled the tender. After my transfer, this tender was done with someone else's signature."

"The government tried its best to defame me. Finally, I request the government and its agencies to tell the truth to the people of my beloved country as to what they found during the investigation," he said.

Malik added that despite having the opportunity to serve the country in high positions in a political career spanning more than 50 years, "I am still living in a one-room house and am also in debt. If I had money today, I would have got treatment in a private hospital - Satyapal Malik (former governor) #satyapalmalik."
