Verify Pragya Thakur's health status, NIA told as she misses court date

A special court in Mumbai has directed the NIA to verify the health condition of BJP MP Pragya Singh Thakur, accused in the 2008 Malegaon blast case. Thakur's absence citing health reasons has caused delays in court proceedings. The court allowed her plea for exemption but emphasized the importance of her presence for recording her statement.
