How did Harshad Mehta die?

Answer 1

While he was in Thane Jail, he fell ill and complained of serious chest pain. The jail did not have the facility or the willingness to transport him by a motor vehicle to a hospital. Apparently he was made to walk out upto the jail gates despite chest pain and made to wait for a long time before which a vehicle carried him to the hospital. It has been said that he was beset by a heart attack of a massive order on the way to the hospital. Perhaps had the vehicle been provided timely he would have landed up in the hospital before the heart attack hit him. So, in India death comes in many ways including the non-availability of transport when it is needed most.
