Days after two residents of Aasra Grih died under mysterious circumstances, two other women of the shelter home were admitted to Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH) following complaints of weakness and dizziness.

According to a doctor at the PMCH, "The two women, one around 17 and the other in her 50s, were very weak. They had fainted and were brought to the hospital when their condition deteriorated. It seems they are malnourished and anaemic and we are treating them as per the procedure."
