Thapan initially cited Navratri fasting as the reason for refusing food but continued the strike to press his demand. After his health deteriorated, he was admitted to the prisoner ward of Jawaharlal Nehru Hospital in Ajmer. During his hospital stay, he reportedly told doctors that he would resume eating after returning to jail. However, he refused food again after being shifted back to prison.

A report on Thapan's conduct has been sent to the Jaipur headquarters.Jangid also said Thapan had not submitted any written application regarding his hunger strike. Following an incident in which CCTV cameras inside the barrack were damaged, Thapan and his associates were moved to separate wards....
