Former Union minister Sharad Pawar, 85, who was hospitalised in Pune on Monday after complaining of cough, fatigue, and mild breathing discomfort, is stable and recovering well, doctors said on Tuesday.
Dr Simon Grant, physician and trustee of Pune’s Ruby Hall Clinic, said Pawar’s vital parameters were within normal limits, and his overall clinical condition was satisfactory. “He is stable and recovering well. The mild discomfort noted at the time of admission has improved with ongoing medical management,” the hospital said in a statement.
Doctors have kept Pawar under observation as a precautionary measure. “His treatment is being carried out strictly as per Ruby Hall Clinic’s established medical protocols, and all investigations are being closely monitored. Further decisions regarding the course of care will be taken based on his clinical progress,” said the statement.
During admission, Pawar’s heart rate and oxygen levels were stable. He reportedly had an elevated respiratory rate and chest congestion and was admitted as a precaution.
Ruby Hall Clinic has appealed to Pawar’s well-wishers to avoid gathering within the hospital premises to ensure that routine patient care is not disrupted.
