New Delhi: Sonam Wangchuk, the activist at the centre of the youth protest called by Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), was discharged from VMMC & Safdarjung Hospital Tuesday evening. He moved to Medanta Hospital, Gurgaon, following a Delhi High Court order.At the time of discharge, his vital parameters were stable, but doctors said pancytopenia, a condition marked by reduced blood cell count, persisted and his serum potassium level was 3.4 mEq/L.Earlier in the day, the hospital said Wangchuk had refused intravenous fluids and glucose despite repeated medical advice. His blood sugar remained on the lower side. His serum potassium had dropped to 3.2 mEq/L.The hospital said he required sustained medical supervision and clinical monitoring . The evening health bulletin said all medical records had been handed over to the Medanta team.Earlier Tuesday, Delhi High Court ordered that Wangchuk be shifted immediately from Safdarjung to Medanta, according to his family’s wish. This order came on Wangchuk’s wife, Gitanjai Angmo’s appeal after a court Sunday denied Wangchuk permission to move out of Safdarjung.However, Tuesday, the high court said it was “of the opinion that in case the husband of the appellant is shifted to Medanta Hospital, that will ensure him “his fundamental rights” under Article 19 and Article 21 of the Constitution.Chief Justice DK Upadhyaya and Justice Tejas Karia’s bench recorded that it “interacted with all three doctors”. Among them were AIIMS in-charge director, Dr Nikhil Tandon, and Dr Akshay Kumar, expert in emergency medicine, who was in the team monitoring Wangchuk at Safdarjung. The bench said: “Certain concerns have been expressed by the doctors primarily relating to low total leucocyte count (TLC) and the potassium level in the blood sample of the husband of the appellant.”The court asked the director of Medanta to form a team of doctors with requisite expertise to constantly monitor Wangchuk and administer medication. “We are concerned with (Wangchuk’s) fundamental rights. Nothing to do with all that is going on,” the bench said, adding that Angmo will be permitted to visit Wangchuk as and when she desires.Solicitor-general Tushar Mehta said govt had no objection to Wangchuk being shifted to Medanta. “The only thing is that he may not get a discharge against medical advice. The irony of the situation today is that those around him want him out, irrespective of his health,” Mehta said.“We will not go into all that. Do not drag the court into all that,” the chief justice said in response.Senior advocate Akhil Sibal, appearing for Angmo, submitted that Wangchuk’s vitals were stable and he should be shifted to Medanta as per his wish. He highlighted that the activist has also written a letter complaining about his hospitalisation at Safdarjung, which raised issues of surveillance and that his phone was taken away.In her appeal, Angmo contended that the single judge’s order illegally confined Wangchuk to Safdarjung and effectively denied the activist or his wife any decisive authority over his medical treatment.SG Mehta had then said that this was not a case of an “ordinary individual” who was “sitting at home”. Considering the potential consequences of any “subsequent unforeseen event”, it was the state’s duty to ensure that his health did not deteriorate further and result in a law and order crisis.
