Former Finance Minister Arun Jaitley’s Death Hoax Floods Twitter

The rumors spreading former Finance Minister Mr. Arun JaitleyÂs death has flooded the micro-blogging site, Twitter, on Sunday afternoon as plenty of users started asking the health update of the veteran BJP leader. Several WhatsApp posts have also been circulated about Arun JaitleyÂs death due to cardiac arrest.

However, JaitleyÂs close friend and TV journalist Rajat Sharma has rejected such hoax as he tweeted, ÂEveryone is discussing my friend @arunjaitley ‘s health, some out of genuine concern and some for loose talk. Let me share with you that I met him last evening, he is recovering well and is working behind the scenes. Friends and family have convinced him to stay

away from public.Â

He further added that the veteran BJP leader is Âavoiding interaction to avoid infection.Â

In a reply to a Twitter handle @sanghiRavan to a similar death hoax about Arun Jaitley, another BJP leader and Rajya Sabha MP Subramanian Swamy said, ÂDeath is an issue between God and Jaitely. It cannot be rumoured but can be announced only by his family. Till that time I will assume he is alive.Â

Arun Jaitley has been diagnosed with kidney-related ailment since a long time and had undergone a renal transplant on May 14th last year.

A lawyer by profession, Arun Jaitley is considered as one of the most articulate voices in the Modi government and played a troubleshooter at many crucial occasions.  

This was the last tweet by @arunjailtey on 24th May ÂSaddened beyond words to know about the fire tragedy in Surat. My thoughts are with the bereaved families. I pray for the speedy recovery of all those injured in this tragic incident. 

Arun Jaitley has been very active on twitter as well.
