Former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Narayan Dutt Tiwari has been admitted to Ram Manohar Lohia Institute of Medical Sciences (RMLIMS) here following complaints of an infection.
The 91-year-old leader was taken to RMLIMS last night and the doctors attending on him said that he was showing signs of improvement.
"There were symptoms of chest infection, temperature and age-related problems. He is responding to medication. His condition has improved," RMLIMS Director Prof Deepak Malviya told PTI here today.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath visited the hospital today and enquired about the leader's health.
"Panditji, aap hamaare dharohar hai (you are our heritage)," he told Tiwari.
The Chief Minister's gesture made Tiwari and his son Rohit Shekhar emotional.
Tiwari was present during the swearing-in ceremony of Adityanath on March 19 here.
