New Delhi: Nabila Sadiq, a professor at Delhi’s Jamia Millia Islamia university, passed away days after tweeting an SOS for ICU bed.
She got a bed but her lungs were too damaged by then. She took her last breath on Monday at a Faridabad hospital.
Her students and acquaintances called various hospitals and finally managed to get a bed at Fortis Hospital in Faridabad. ”However, her oxygen levels dropped to 32%. After a CT scan, the doctor said her lungs were damaged,” Jamia student Waqar said.
