Jogawat was fat-shamed by writer Shobhaa De, who poked fun at him during the BMC polls. Subsequently, the policeman replied saying that his excess weight was not due to overeating but a health condition. He underwent medical tests in Mumbai and opted for bariatric surgery on March 2. 

According to Hindustan Times, Jogawat was operated at Saifee Hospital and was discharged five days later.

However, since Tuesday night, his condition has been deteriorating. While he has not eaten anything for the past 36 hours, he has constant fever and loose motions. Jogawat has been admitted to a nursing home in Neemuch.

Jogawat weighed 180 kg before the surgery and was expected to lose over 80 kg in the next 18 months.
