After Ajithan tested positive for COVID-19, he had been undergoing treatment at Idukki medical college but as his condition worsened, he was shifted to Kottayam medical college on Wednesday. He was a heart patient. Doctors could not save his life despite administering anti-viral treatment and plasma therapy. This was informed by KPOA general secretary through a press statement.

Ajithan’s wife and children were also diagnosed with COVID-19 earlier. Ajithan was infected with coronavirus through contact.
