New Delhi: External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, who was admitted to All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), was today discharged after three weeks.

 

Sushma, who had complained of congestion in chest, has now recovered completely.

AIIMS Director MC Mishra said Ms Swaraj was discharged after a group of doctors today examined her and found her to be fit.

”Swaraj was being treated for pneumonia and the infection had also caused mild renal impairment. She was treated by a group of specialists and was discharged after the doctors declared her fit,” Mr Mishra said.

A medical board was constituted to formulate the combined treatment strategy for the minister.

“Sushma Swaraj has undergone some test for her chest pain. Reports will come by tomorrow. She is stable now,” Amit Gupta, spokesperson of AIIMS, said.

Gupta said that Swaraj (64) is currently under observation by a team of multi-specialists.

The 64-year-old Union Minister was admitted to AIIMS on April 25. She underwent treatment in the Cardio-Neuro Centre of the hospital.

The doctors had earlier said that it was likely that she contracted the infection due to extreme temperatures during her travels.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid a visit to Swaraj on April 27.

Swaraj has a history of acute diabetes and has been put on antibiotics.
