Sharad Pawar Discharged From Pune Hospital After Chest Infection

Doctors say he recovered from a mild chest infection, with rest of three to four days advised.

Overview

  • Ruby Hall Clinic confirmed he left the facility on February 14 after responding well to treatment.
  • He was seen departing in a wheelchair and waved to supporters gathered outside the hospital.
  • He had been admitted on February 9 from Baramati with chest congestion, persistent cough and breathing difficulty, and was treated with a five-day antibiotic course.
  • Doctors and family said he required no ICU care, oxygen or ventilator support, and he was kept in a private room under observation given his history as an oral cancer survivor.
