Sources at the hospital said Patil is on ventilator support. Patil, 57, has been admitted to the hospital for the past two weeks. “He was initially kept in a private room and was later shifted to the ICU, after his condition worsened,” said a doctor from the hospital.

On Monday, Patil was shifted to the ICU, said hospital sources.

Many senior officials from the Nationalist Congress Party, including its chief Sharad Pawar, paid a visit to the senior leader.

In December, Patil was admitted to Bombay Hospital, Marine Lines, after he complained of severe chest pain. Doctors said he had a heart attack and was treated accordingly. Earlier in November, Patil had undergone a surgery at Breach Candy Hospital, where he was admitted under the care of an oncologist.
