LUCKNOW: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday spoke to the son of former UP CM Kalyan Singh over phone and enquired about the health of the veteran leader who was shifted to the SGPGI on Sunday.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union home minister Amit Shah, Union health minister Dr Harsh Vardhan called up and enquired about Babuji’s (Kalyan Singh) condition and extended their wishes for his speedy recovery,” Kalyan Singh’s son Rajveer told TOI.
An SGPGI spokesman said the 89-year-old leader showed mild signs of improvement on Monday and a team of experts was monitoring him round the clock. “Since admission, his condition is stable and all his parameters are being monitored intensely by the panel of senior doctors. There is slight improvement in his condition today as compared to yesterday,” SGPGI director Prof RK Dhiman said in a statement.
Wishes for his speedy recovery are pouring in from all quarters, Rajveer, a former MP, said.
He added that CM Yogi Adityanath was personally keeping tabs on his father’s health. “Yesterday, the CM came to see him and today he called up twice to enquire if any additional support was needed,” Rajveer said. On Sunday, both Yogi and defence minister Rajnath Singh had visited SGPGI to meet the ailing leader.
“I am thankful and would request all his followers to continue to pray for him,” Rajveer said.
Kalyan Singh, who also served as Rajasthan governor, has been suffering from age related complications for the past few days. He was admitted to Ram Manohar Lohia Institute of Medical Sciences on Saturday night and shifted to SGPGI ICU on Sunday.
The doctors at RMLIMS had diagnosed deranged renal parameters and inflammation. The family confirmed that Singh was shifted to SGPGI after his blood pressure went up to alarming levels.
