Jharkhand: Wedding guest dies after rasgulla gets lodged in his throat

As his condition worsened, Singh was rushed to a hospital in the area where he was declared dead.

The mood of a wedding turned bleak in Jharkhand when a man died after choking on a rasgulla during a feast. The incident reportedly occurred at a wedding last week in Jamshedpur's Maliyanta village.

The deceased has been identified as 41-year-old Lalit Singh who was a guest at the wedding ceremony on the night of January 13.

According to reports, Singh was enjoying his food when he started suffocating as a rasgulla got stuck in his throat. A relative reportedly described that the man turned pale due to difficulty in breathing and many present at the scene tried procedures to remove the sweet from his food pipe.

As his condition worsened, Singh was rushed to the MGM hospital in the area where he was declared dead. A doctor reportedly explained that the rasgulla had blocked the airway cutting off the oxygen supply. The body has been handed over to his family after the post-mortem.
