New Delhi: Former Finance Minister Arun Jaitley is responding to treatment, the Vice President’s office notified after Venkaiah Naidu visited AIIMS on Saturday.
“The doctors informed the Vice President that Arun Jaitley is responding to treatment and his condition is stable,” the notification stated.
Jaitley, 66, is under observation in the ICU. He was admitted to the hospital on Friday morning after he complained of breathlessness and anxiety. He is likely to be kept under observation for the next 2 to 3 days, according to media reports.
