Meanwhile, Bala's blood pressure and heart rate which fluctuated yesterday, has shown no major changes.

Currently on a ventilator, Bala is conscious and obeying verbal commands, they said.

Bala underwent a surgery on June 5 for cervical spinal injuries. Doctors have done decompression and fixation using plate, screw and cage.

Doctors also said that her neurological status remains unchanged and she is quadriplegic (paralysis caused by illness or injury to a human).

Another Ramdev supporter, with head injuries, is now undergoing treatment at the Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Hospital.

"Only one patient is admitted with us and the rest have been discharged. He will be discharged as soon as he recovers," Dr Richa Diwan, Medical Superintendent of LNJP Hospital, said.
