Jharkhand Education Minister Suffers 'Brain Injury' After Slipping In Bathroom, Airlifted To Delhi

Ranchi: Jharkhand Education Minister Ramdas Soren was airlifted to Delhi as he suffered a serious head injury after falling in the bathroom at his residence here early Saturday.

"Soren was airlifted to Delhi. I have spoken to the director of Delhi Apollo. He assured me that the treatment will be started as soon as the minister reaches the hospital," former Union minister Arjun Munda, who was at Sonari airport in Jamshedpur, told reporters.

Ramdas was initially admitted to Tata Motors Hospital in Jamshedpur, where doctors detected blood clotting in his brain. Soon after, it was decided to shift him to the national capital for advanced treatment.

"Ramdas Soren ji's health has suddenly deteriorated. He fell in the bathroom, which resulted in a severe brain injury and a blood clot," Irfan Ansari, the state health minister, said in a statement.

Ansari said he was constantly monitoring his condition. "I pray to God for his speedy recovery. I am taking feedback on his health every moment," he said.

Ansari said, "Ramdas Soren's health has suddenly deteriorated. He fell in the bathroom, which resulted in a severe brain injury and a blood clot. I am constantly in touch with his family and monitoring his condition."

Ramdas Soren, one of the senior leaders of Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, represents the Ghatsila Assembly segment. When Champai Soren joined the BJP, Hemant Soren made him a minister in his previous cabinet, projecting him as a big leader of Kolhan. After the 2024 election results, he was made a minister again.
