Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Saurabh Bharadwaj took to X, blamed the COVID-19 vaccine and said, “It is a common discussion that after the corona vaccine, such cases are continuously coming to fore in India where young people are dying of heart attacks while walking.”

A similar incident occurred in January this year when a man playing Lor Hanuman suffered a heart attack during a Ramleela play in Haryana's Bhiwani. Ramleela shows during Durga Puja in Delhi are common. This time, Sri Ram Lila Society claimed to have erected the tallest Ravan effigy in India, standing at an impressive 211 feet tall in Dwarka's Sector 10.
