A 33-year-old Rajasthan bureaucrat died last night due to negligence by doctors, her relatives have alleged. Priyanka Bishnoi, who was posted as sub-divisional magistrate in Jodhpur, died at a hospital in Ahmedabad two weeks after she underwent a surgery at a hospital in Jodhpur.

Her death has sparked anger among the Bishnoi community and her relatives have demanded a police case against the owner of the Jodhpur hospital and the doctors.

Jodhpur District Collector Gaurav Agrawal has ordered an inquiry by a five-member team.

The 2016-batch Rajasthan Administrative Services (RAS) officer underwent surgery earlier this month at the Vasundhara Hospital in Jodhpur.

She allegedly went into coma after she was given excess dosage of anaesthesia during her surgery, according to them.

Bishnoi community leader Devendra Budia has alleged a conspiracy behind the bureaucrat’s death and demanded a CBI probe.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma condoled Bishnoi’s death as “extremely sad”. “I pray to Lord Shri Ram to give a place to the departed soul in his feet and give strength to the family members to bear this grief,” he said in an online post.

Former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot too condoled the promising officer’s death.
