`Suicide bid'

Special Correspondent

JAIPUR : Bharat Joshi, son of Rajasthan Minister of State for Health Bhawani Joshi, and a woman were admitted on Tuesday night to a hospital in Banswara, after they allegedly consumed poison.

Both were later shifted to the Maharana Bhupal Hospital in Udaipur and were said to be out of danger. Reports said Bharat Joshi was being brought here for ``better medical care.''

Bharat, adopted by Mr. Bhawani Joshi's elder brother Vasudev Joshi, was married a year ago.

The Minister said he was distressed over the incident and did not want to comment.
