A spate of deaths in July has raised questions about the shelter home and the cause of the sudden deaths.<\/p>\n<p>According to a report in the Times Of India, 12 inmates, mostly women, died between July 15 and July 31 in the shelter home. The Delhi government has now ordered a magisterial inquiry into the Asha Kiran Shelter Home case. Aam Admi Party leader Dilip K Pandey has said that as soon &#8220;as the inquiry report comes out, strict action will be taken against the culprits&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The National Commission for Women (NCW) has reportedly sent a fact-finding team to the shelter home. The NCW has also slammed the AAP government for negligence. According to media reports, the deaths happened allegedly due to \u201chealth issues and malnutrition\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>As per the report, 12 inmates, among them 10 women, died in the latter half of July, yet only one body was sent for autopsy earlier in the month. The report also noted that data from Asha Kiran\u2019s medical care unit revealed that an unusually high number of 54 inmates were sent for external treatment in July. The TOI report also stated that the symptoms in the people who died were similar &#8211; lose motion and vomiting.<\/p>\n<p>The Delhi revenue minister Atishi directed the additional chief secretary to \u201csubmit a report within 48 hours \u201d. Atishi has reportedly asked the additional chief secretary to suggest what action can be taken against those guilty of negligence. She wants strict action to be taken to also ensure that such incidents don&#8217;t happen in the future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A disturbing news has emerged Asha Kiran, the only government-run facility in the national capital for people with mental health problems.
