Pranab Mukherjee, the former President of India, is being treated for lung infection according to the Army Research and Referral hospital, on Wednesday.
“Hon’ble Shri Pranab Mukherjee is being treated for lung infection. His renal parameters are slightly deranged since yesterday. He continues to be in deep coma and on ventilator support (SIC),” the hospital in a statement said.
The 84-year old Congress veteran underwent critical brain surgery at the hospital to remove a clot after he suffered a fall at his Rajaji Marg residence on August 10. He is on ventilator support since then.
He had also tested positive for the coronavirus at the time of his admission followed by a respiratory infection.
