Congress MP L Rajagopal, who had fled from a Vijayawada hospital, resurfaced at the Nizam Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) here today.
Rajagopal, who has been on a fast for the past nine days in support of united Andhra Pradesh and wanted to be shifted to NIMS, reached the premier state-run hospital at around 2 PM, sources said.
The Vijayawada MP had last night fled from the government hospital where he was admitted for the last four days after being taken into custody.
About 300 policemen, providing security to the hospital, were caught off guard as the MP gave them a slip.
Though the policemen tried to chase the MP, they failed to nab him as he reportedly changed vehicles to evade being caught.
Prior to his escape from the hospital, Rajagopal had sent a letter to Andhra Pradesh Governor N D Tiwari complaining about the poor facilities in the Vijayawada government Hospital and sought to be shifted to NIMS.
