PUNE: Purvez Grant, Chief Cardiologist, Chairman and Managing Trustee of Ruby Hall Clinic, on Saturday said that Sharad Pawar, chief of the
Nationalist Congress Party (Sharadchandra Pawar), is in good health and has recovered well.
He said that Pawar will be discharged today and has been advised to take adequate rest for a few days before gradually resuming his routine work and public engagements.
"Mr. Pawar is in good health and has recovered well. He will be discharged today. The medical team has advised him to take adequate rest for a few days, following which he may gradually resume his routine work and public engagement," Doctor Grant said.
Pawar was admitted to Ruby Hall Clinic on February 9. His daughter, Supriya Sule, had earlier said that he developed chest congestion and would require a five-day course of antibiotics.
In a post on X, Sule said that Pawar’s other vital parameters were normal. "Baba has developed chest congestion and will need a 5-day course of antibiotics. Fortunately, all other vital parameters are normal. Thank you all for your good wishes and constant support. A heartfelt thank you to all the doctors from the bottom of my heart," she said.
Meanwhile, NCP-SCP leader Rohit Pawar on Monday said that the senior leader’s condition is stable and he is doing well.
"Sharad Pawar's health is very good right now. His tests have been done there. He has not been kept in the ICU. He has been kept in a private room there. He doesn't need any support there right now. Once the reports come, it will be decided whether he will be kept in Pune or Mumbai," said Rohit Pawar.
He added that a decision on whether Pawar will be shifted to Pune or Mumbai will be taken after the medical reports are received. "Pawar came here in a private vehicle, and everything is normal," he said.
Rohit Pawar also appealed to party workers not to visit the hospital to avoid inconvenience to other patients. "I, Supriya Tai, the doctors, the party workers, and people from across Maharashtra will provide regular updates," he said.
