Manmohan Singh 'stable', after being admitted to AIIMS with fever

Former Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh, who was admitted to All India Institute of Medical Sciences in Delhi is stable, said hospital officials on Wednesday.

Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on Thursday visited the hospital to meet the Congress veteran.

The 89-year-old former prime minister was admitted to a private ward of the cardio-neuro centre of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) on Wednesday and is under the care of a team of cardiologists led by Dr Nitish Naik, the doctor said.



He had developed fever two days ago and was feeling weak, following which he had to be rushed to the AIIMS.

In April this year, the former Prime Minister had tested positive for Covid-19.

Pranav Jha, AICC secretary in-charge for communication, said that Singh is "undergoing routine treatment" and his condition is stable. He also dismissed "unsubstantiated rumours" regarding his health.
