On social media, those who were writing posts to pay tribute to the ‘deceased’ politician, were now sending wishes for his speedy recovery.
Social media reacts
The miraculous development triggered a wave of satirical and funny posts on X (earlier known as Twitter).
One user wrote, “Amazing transformation in health sector by (Chief Minister) Yogi ji. Even dead are becoming alive.”
Another user pointed out the complete failure of the healthcare system in doctors declaring an alive person dead. “It is a complete failure of the healthcare system in UP, if VIPs are being treated in such a manner, we can only imagine the healthcare services available at the disposal of common men. It’s pathetic and shameful.”
“The man who has seen death,” a third user wrote on X.
