New Delhi: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister, Mufti Mohammad Sayeed has been kept in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at the AIIMS where he was admitted earlier this week following chest pain.
Doctors attending him said that the 79-year-old Chief Minister had been kept in the ICU as a precautionary measure so he did not catch any more infections.
They said Sayeeds platelet count had dropped and the Chief Minister needed transfusion.
Besides this, he has developed a severe chest infection for which he was being treated. His condition is stated to be stable.
Home Minister Rajnath Singh visited him on Tuesday to enquire about his health and wished him speedy recovery.
The Home Minister also interacted with the doctors in AIIMS to know the health condition of Sayeed, who was also union home minister in the VP Singh government.
Mufti was admitted in AIIMS on December 24 after he complained of uneasiness at his residence in Srinagar and was flown to Delhi in a state aircraft. Sayeeds condition is stated to be stable. He had taken over as Chief Minister of a PDP-BJP alliance government in March this year.
