Pawar complains of uneasiness, cuts short Sangli visit

PUNE: Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar today cut short his visit to Sangli after taking ill and arrived in the city for rest, party sources said.


Pawar started feeling uneasy in Kolhapur on way to Sangli and was examined by local doctors who advised him complete rest.

He flew to Pune in a helicopter and went to his residence at Shivajinagar area.

A low sugar level could have caused his uneasiness, sources said.

The NCP president walked to his car after landing in the city and there was no cause of worry, they added.

Pawar was scheduled to address a function at Sangli along with SP president Mulayam Singh Yadav.

Party spokesman Nawab Malik said Pawar's health is fine and he is resting at his residence in Pune.
