RJD chief Lalu Prasad was shifted to the Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) here on Tuesday, a day after he was discharged from AIIMS in New Delhi where he was being treated for heart and kidney related ailments.
The former Bihar Chief Minister reached Ranchi by Rajdhani Express. He was taken to RIMS in an ambulance and was admitted in the cardiology department.
"We are waiting for a medial report from RIMS. Based on it, we will take a decision on Lalu Yadav," an official of the Birsa Munda Central Jail told IANS.
Lalu Prasad was admitted to RIMS on March 17 following complaints of uneasiness in the Birsa Munda Jail where he was serving a prison term since December 23, 2017 in connection with the fodder scam.
He has been convicted in four fodder scam cases since 2013 -- the latest being the Dumka treasury case in which a special CBI court sentenced him to 14 years in jail.
Lalu Prasad on Monday attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his sudden shifting from the AIIMS, shortly after Congress President Rahul Gandhi called on him.
