Vajpayee still in hospital, stable

NEW DELHI: Former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee continued to be in hospital, but doctors attending on him said his condition was stable.

"He is progressing well and his vital signs are stable," AIIMS spokesman Shakti Gupta told PTI. But he refused to say when he would be discharged from the hospital.

The 83-year-old BJP leader was admitted to AIIMS here on August 21 after he complained of giddiness and drowsiness.

Vajpayee was admitted to the private ward in the Cardio-Thoracic and Neuro-Sciences Centre.

"Reports of all the tests, including MRI, CT and ECG, are normal. We will review his condition today, before deciding on when he could be discharged," Gupta said.
