After five days in a coma, 16-year-old Shivam Shukla, who was fighting for his life in an Indore hospital after being attacked by Islamists during the Ram Navami procession in Khargone, has regained consciousness.

Shivam, who sustained significant brain damage, is responding to treatment, according to doctors.

Shivam’s brother, Manthan Joshi, told Times Now that he is now stable, but that he is still unable to talk. Manthan added that 150 to 200 persons threw petrol bombs, pelted stones, and even fired bullets during the Ram Navami procession. He said that this had been prepared ahead of time. Shivam got hurt in the violence.

“Our mother is still reeling from the ordeal, and we can’t sleep at night because we’re so terrified. The administration is really helpful, but it will take some time for us to overcome our fears,” he added.

Shivam attends Khargone Polytechnic College and, according to his maternal uncle Surendra Joshi, he and his family took part in the Ram Navami celebration. According to reports, the state of Madhya Pradesh is footing the bill for his hospitalization.
