Aamgavkar was undergoing treatment at Vedant Hospital, Thane. His wife and brother, who also contracted the virus, recovered from the virus, last week. However, his mother who had tested positive is under treatment in the hospital.

Aamgavkar was earlier admitted to the Themba Civic Hospital in Bhayander and later shifted to the Thane hospital. Aamgavkar had a blood pressure problem. He took all the necessary precautions like wearing a mask and maintaining social distance, while attending meetings, said an MBMC official.
