Haryana, Jan 13: An extraordinary incident unfolded in Haryana as 80-year-old Darshan Singh Brar, initially declared dead by doctors, came back to life after his ambulance hit a pothole on the way to his home in Karnal. The shocking turn of events reported by NDTV, occurred during the transportation of Brar's 'body' from a hospital in Patiala, Punjab. Mourners at Brar's home had already gathered for his last rites, with arrangements made for his cremation.

However, Brar's grandson noticed movement in his hand inside the ambulance, prompting him to alert the driver to rush to the nearest hospital. Doctors at the hospital declared Brar alive, contradicting the earlier declaration of death by another medical facility in Patiala, where he had been on a ventilator for four days.

Balwan Singh, one of Brar's grandsons, shared the events leading to the confusion, explaining that they had informed relatives and locals about Brar's demise, with preparations made for mourning, including setting up a tent and arranging food. As the ambulance traversed Dhand village in Haryana, a pothole jolted Brar's grandson, revealing signs of life.

Currently admitted to NP Rawal Hospital in Karnal, Brar's condition is critical, with doctors noting a chest infection contributing to laborious breathing. Dr. Netrapal from NP Rawal Hospital emphasized that upon arrival, Brar exhibited signs of life, raising questions about the circumstances leading to the earlier declaration of death and underlining the uncertainty surrounding the incident.
