Richa Singh, wife of army jawan Yagya Pratap Singh, who had alleged exploitation by his superiors, was admitted to hopital as her condition deteriorated on Monday following her hunger strike.

Richa has been on hunger strike here since Saturday, demanding justice for her husband.

Lance Naik Yagya Pratap had uploaded an video, in which he had alleged that his seniors forced him to do domestic chores and even polish shoes.

She demanded that army jawans should be posted at the border by relieving them of subsidiary works and should be given mobile phones to remain in touch with their families.
