DR Harsh Vardhan

New Delhi : Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan on Tuesday clarified on an 'incorrect claim' regarding the death case of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.

Vardhan said that a section of the media has reported that he offered to take personal cognisance of the case.

"An INCORRECT claim is being made in a section of the media that I have offered to take personal cognisance of Sushant death case. I've NOT spoken to anyone nor offered to examine any case. Please refrain from believing any unverified statements," Vardhan tweeted

Meanwhile, the All India Institute of Medical Sciences' Forensic Medical Board confirmed that actor Sushant Singh Rajput died by suicide, ruling out the murder angle.
