Home minister visits AIIMS to enquire about Vajpayee's health condition

Home Minister Rajnath Singh today visited AIIMS to enquire about the health condition of former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee who is undergoing treatment at the premier institute.

Singh reached AIIMS around 7.30 and left around 8.20 pm, according to a source.

Vajpayee was admitted to the hospital on June 11 with a kidney tract infection, chest congestion, urinary tract infection and urine output on the lower side.

The 93-year-old BJP leader, a diabetic, has one functional kidney. He had suffered a stroke in 2009 that weakened his cognitive abilities. Subsequently, he developed dementia.
