Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) chief Parkash Singh Badal has been admitted to a private hospital in Mohali, a party spokesperson said on Sunday.
The five-time chief minister of Punjab was taken to the hospital on Saturday night after he vomited. His condition is stated to be stable now.
The 94-year-old was admitted to the PGIMER in Chandigarh on June 6 after he complained of gastric-related problems. He was discharged the next day.
Earlier this year, Mr Badal had contracted COVID-19. In February, he was taken to a private hospital in Mohali for a post-covid health check-up. He had undergone a cardiac and pulmonary check-up too.
Prior to this, Mr Badal was on January 24 discharged from a hospital in Ludhiana where he was admitted after he tested positive for COVID-19.
The SAD chief had earlier been advised by doctors to opt for bi-weekly or tri-weekly precautionary check-ups, especially after contracting COVID-19.
