Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Wednesday met ailing Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav at a private hospital in Patna where the latter is undergoing treatment for a fractured shoulder. Nitish arrived at the Paras Hospital around 1 PM and met Lalu inside the ICU.
Besides Nitish, state's Health Minister Mangal Pandey and Industry Minister Shahnawaz Hussain also met Lalu to enquire about his health.
Lalu, 74, was admitted to a hospital in Patna on Monday following a fracture in his right shoulder after suffering a fall at his house on Sunday. After Sunday's incident, Lalu was initially admitted to a private hospital for primary treatment. He was discharged on the same day. But on Monday his condition became serious after which he was admitted to Paras Hospital.
Earlier on Tuesday, Lalu's daughter Rohini Acharya had shared pictures of her ailing father on Twitter. Lalu in the pictures appeared weak as he could be seen lying in a hospital bed following a shoulder injury.
Lalu who stays at the residence allotted to his wife at Circular Road in her capacity as an ex-CM suffers from many health complications and was planning a trip abroad for treatment of kidney problems. Out on bail in fodder scam cases, Prasad had last month obtained permission from the Jharkhand High Court for traveling abroad, preferably Singapore, to get a kidney transplant. Lalu himself is an ex-chief minister of Bihar.
Lalu and his wife Rabri Devi have seven daughters and two sons.
