Get well soon, Sir. A towering figure in Maharashtra politics. His experience is invaluable. Hope he follows doctor's advice and takes proper rest this time.
He was just discharged on the 14th! This shows he went back to work too soon. The family and party workers should ensure he takes a proper break. Health is wealth.
Mild dehydration can be serious at that age, especially after a recent illness. Good that they are being cautious. Ruby Hall is a good hospital. Wishing him good health.
Respectfully, this is the second hospitalization in a month. It might be time for a less strenuous schedule. The nation needs its senior statesmen healthy, not overworked.
Speedy recovery! His daughter Supriya Sule's update was reassuring. Family support is so important during health issues, no matter how big a leader you are.
