Reportedly, Naharshetivar made rounds of hospitals in both Maharashtra and Telangana in a span of 24 hours but nothing worked. He said that he first went to the Warora hospital and then to Chandrapur. Later, he went to private hospitals where there were no beds.
After he failed to find a bed in Maharashtra, he took his father to Telangana, however, no beds were there either. Then, he brought his father back to Maharashtra and had to wait outside the hospital for a bed.
Also, the oxygen in his father’s ambulance was running out. He said “Either you gove a bed for him, or you kill him with an injection. I can't take him home like this and you have no beds available.”
