Jaipur, Feb 3 (PTI): A charred body of a doctor was found in a room of a government hospital in the Jalore district of Rajasthan on Monday morning with police suspecting that the fire was caused due to smoking, police said.
According to police, the victim was identified as Muralilal Meena (45), a doctor working with the Ayurveda Hospital in Ummedabad village. He lived in a room within the hospital premises.
On Monday morning, the police received information that smoke was emanating from his room, Circle Officer Gautam Jain said.
A police team rushed to the spot and sent for the body for post-mortem. Prima facie it appears that the fire was caused due to smoking cigarettes in the room, Jain said.
The victim was alone in the room when the incident happened. His family had gone to Jaipur to attend a wedding, the officer said.
The officer added that no case has been registered yet. During the initial probe, the police found that Meena had difficulty in movement due to pain in his body and knees.

Mathura (UP), May 16 (PTI): As many as 90 Bangladeshi nationals, including many children, were apprehended from Uttar Pradesh's Mathura district on Friday for alleged illegal stay in India, officials said.
They were taken into custody from local brickyards at Khajpur village under the Naujheel police station limits, a senior officer said.
"Regular searches were being conducted throughout the district. During one such operation, police were searching some local brickyards when they came across Bangladeshi nationals working there," SSP Shlok Kumar said.
Giving a break-up, the officer said in all, 35 men, 27 women and 28 children have been taken into custody.
"During interrogation, all of them admitted to being Bangladeshi nationals living illegally in India. They moved to Mathura three to four months back from a neighbouring state. Police are trying to establish their links," the SSP said, adding that their job contractor and other associates are also being questioned.
The officer told PTI that police also recovered some Aadhaar cards from the Bangladeshi nationals, apparently issued on forged documents in some other state.
Further legal proceedings are underway, Kumar said.
