An Indian man has paid with his life while fasting for US President Donald Trump to recover from coronavirus.
The man identified as 33 year-old Bussa Krishna from Telangana,
India made headlines after turning his puja room into a temple for US
President Donald Trump. He also worshipped a statue of the US
President.
Bussa Krishna who was concerned about the US President's health
condition following his COVID-19 infection, died of cardiac arrest on
Sunday October 11.
The family of the deceased who confirmed that he's been fasting
after learning about Trump's Coronavirus infection, said he collapsed
while having tea at his relative`s residence at Toopran area in Medak
district of Telangana.
His cousin Vivek told reporters;
“He was feeling depressed for the last couple of weeks after
coming to know that Trump and Melania had tested positive for Covid-19.
But he was healthy and had no prior medical complications."
A school dropout, Krishna became a farmer after his parents moved
to Toopran a couple of years ago. His wife died last year while
delivering a baby boy.
Krishna started worshipping the US president after Srinivas
Kuchibhotla, a indian software engineer was killed by a US navy veteran
in an alleged act of hate crime in February 2017.
He said at that time;
“I was very much pained at the incident. I thought the only way
the US president and his people could understand the greatness of
Indians is to display our love and affection towards them. That is why I
started worshipping Trump with a hope that the prayers would reach him
one day."
He went on to build a six-feet statue of the US President which he
worshipped. Krishna also kept a fast every Friday to pray for long life
for Donald Trump.
