Poonam Pandey is alive. The individual known from Lock Upp addressed rumors of her death in a video statement released on Saturday morning, confirming she is alive. Poonam explained that the false reports about her passing were intended to raise awareness about cervical cancer.
“I am alive. I did not die because of cervical cancer. Unfortunately, I cannot say that about those hundreds and thousands of women who have lost their lives because of cervical cancer. It is not because they couldn’t do anything about it but because they had no idea what to do about it. I am here to tell you that, unlike other cancers, cervical cancer is preventable. All you have to do is, you have to get your tests done and you have to get HPV vaccine,” she said. Watch her video statement here:
