Journalist recounts entering room of Ramesh
According to the journalist who works with Sky News, gaining access to Ramesh's hospital room was not easy.
Despite knowing the ward where Ramesh was being treated, the journalist still faced resistance from hospital staff and security personnel.
However, when he finally gained access and entered the survivor's room, he saw him sitting up on his bed in a hospital wear.
He had only a brief conversation with Ramesh before he was cut short by hospital staff and police, who intervened to prevent further questioning.
The journalist narrated:
"Well it was quite difficult getting to him. We knew he was in a ward in the civil hospital here. It was not easy to get access to him. They had stopped all sort of access to him. I went to his room. I entered into his room and I saw him sitting up on his bed. He was in hospital's blue wear. I asked him his name and he nodded.

"He acknowledged me. I asked him how he is and he said he's okay but as soon as I tried to get more conversation with him, I was asked to leave by a number of police men and hospital administration staff all sent me out almost immediately. But he had a few bruises on his face and arms but he looked very conscious."

"The last thing he needed was for a Reporter to come in his hospital room without permission. Pretty gross."

"Wow, the luckiest person in the world."
DesiDonQuixote said:
"So let's get this straight. Your reporter forced his way into a ward against police advice where the sole survivor is being treated. All he got was a nod from the survivor before getting kicked out, but you're reporting it as if he "talked" voluntarily to your reporter? Why did you even choose to report this news? Are y'all OK? Give the man some space!

"It is TOO MUCH that this reporter's name is Neville Lazarus. If you are familiar with the story of Jesus Christ and His friend Lazarus in the Holy Bible, you will understand why. Be well and be at peace."
