A host of leaders have been visiting the Kauvery Hospital, where Karunanidhi was admitted on December 1 for the treatment.

“I came to enquire about his health since he is one of the senior most respected political leaders in the country. I was told that he will be discharged in one or two days,” Narayanasamy told reporters outside the hospital here.

On October 25, DMK had announced that Karunanidhi was suffering from allergy “caused by a medicine he has been using” and advised rest by doctors.

The 93-year-old leader, who is seen regularly in the public, has since confined himself to his home although he had been issuing statements and reacting on key matters such as demonetisation.

He had also skipped campaigning in the elections to three Tamil Nadu Assembly seats last month. Ruling AIADMK won all three constituencies.
