Bandel, West Bengal:
A 45-year-old man died in West Bengal on Saturday morning while standing in a queue at a State Bank of India ATM. According to witnesses, the man suddenly collapsed and was declared dead at a nearby hospital.
But according to some reports, there was a delay in providing help despite several others being there at the queue to withdraw money.
According to doctors at the hospital, Kallol Roy Chowdhury suffered a heart attack and was dead by the time he was brought to the hospital. The incident, that comes just a day after two deaths were linked to demonetisation queues, took place near Bandel station in Kolkata at around 7:30 am.
"The man was standing in a line. Suddenly he collapsed and we called a local doctor. Later, he was taken to hospital," the security guard posted at the ATM told reporters.
Soon after the report of the death came in, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi once again over his decision to scrap old 500 and 1,000 rupee notes in a bid to curb tax evasion and corruption.
