DMK chief Karunanidhi readmitted to hospital with lung infection

Chennai, December 16

Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) chief M Karunanidhi was admitted to Kauvery hospital in Chennai on Thursday night after he complained of difficulty in breathing.

 

The hospital issued a statement saying Karunanidhi was readmitted with breathing difficulty due to throat and lung infection, adding that he was stable and being treated.

 

Karunanidhi’s daughter and Rajya Sabha MP from Tamil Nadu Kanimozhi told ANI that Karunanidhi had some lung infection and breathing difficulty, adding that he was much better now.

 

This is for the second time that the 93-year old DMK chief has been admitted in a fortnight.

 

He was first admitted to the same hospital on December 1 for optimisation of nutrition and hydration and was discharged after he improved substantially.

M Karunanidhi Undergoes Surgery To Optimise Breathing, His Condition Stable

CHENNAI:  Tamil Nadu's opposition party leader M Karunanidhi today underwent tracheostomy at a private hospital in Chennai to optimise breathing and his condition was stable.

The 92-year-old leader, who was readmitted to Kauvery Hospital in Chennai late last night with breathing difficulties due to throat and lung infection, has undergone tracheostomy to optimise breathing, Dr S Aravindan, Executive Director, Kauvery Hospital, said in a statement.

"Karunanidhi is stable," he said, adding that the former chief minister is being treated with antibiotics and being monitored by a team of doctors.

Meanwhile, senior DMK leaders kept visiting the hospital to enquire about the health of the party chief.


Karunanidhi's readmission to the hospital comes about a week after he was discharged from there on December 7, following week-long treatment for drug-induced allergy.

On October 25, DMK had announced that Karunanidhi was suffering from allergy "caused by a medicine he has been using" and advised rest by doctors.

The leader, who has of late not been seen regularly in public, has confined himself to his home, although he has been issuing statements and reacting on key matters such as demonetisation.

He had also skipped campaigning during the by-election to three state Assembly seats last month. Ruling AIADMK won all three constituencies.
