The doctors attending on the visiting dignitary said they suspected signs of Septicaemia (infection of the blood).

The minister has a medical history of urinary tract infection and has been undergoing treatment for the problem for the past few years.

"We are conducting a battery of investigations on him. We expect the results by this evening," a doctor attending on him at Yashoda Hospital said.

A decision on the course of treatment would be taken on the basis of the results of the diagnostic tests, the doctor said.
