The CM was admitted to the hospital on Friday evening due to exhaustion, and a low heart rate.
An urgent policy on allowing farmers to excavate and sell the flood-deposited sand from their fields is likely to be discussed at the meeting. Earlier, a cabinet meeting scheduled for Friday evening was cancelled by Mann, as he felt unwell.
