He was admitted to the hospital recently after he complained of swelling in his legs and stomach. He was suffering from diabetes, osteoarthritis and septicaemia.

His elder son and former Congress minister, Mahipal Maderna, who is in jail in connection with Bhanwari Devi's murder case, was given interim bail to attend to his ailing father by a court on 12 February.
