Bengaluru: Environmentalist Salumarada Thimmakka's adopted son Umesh on Thursday doused rumours spreading on social media regarding the death of Thimmakka, sharing a video clip as proof that she was still under treatment in the intensive care unit of the Apollo Hospital in the city.
Thimmakka had been staying with her adopted son Umesh in Belur for three months after she fell near her house in Bengaluru and injured herself. She was admitted to the government hospital in Belur on September 26, when she had developed breathing problems. On Monday night, she was shifted to the Apollo Hospital for further treatment.
On Facebook, one Nagaraj Hattur had also posted, "Salumarada Thimmakka is healthy; please do not believe rumours about her."

New Delhi (PTI): An Assam Police team on Tuesday is at the Delhi residence of Congress leader Pawan Khera for questioning in connection with a case linked to allegations made against Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and his family, official sources said.
The team formally informed Delhi Police upon arrival, following which a local police team joined and is assisting in the proceedings, the source said.
The development comes amid a political tussle after Sarma alleged that the Congress used "false information" sourced from a Pakistani social media group to level charges against his wife regarding multiple passports and overseas assets. He termed the allegations an attempt to influence the Assam elections and a punishable offence.
Khera had recently sought clarifications on Sarma's wife's alleged foreign assets, prompting a complaint and subsequent police action.
