Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was released from the Indian Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) at 12:35 p.m. M. Tuesday after receiving treatment for two days for chest pain.
Singh, 87, was admitted to the hospital’s cardiac intensive care unit Sunday night after complaining of chest pain.
“He is absolutely fine and has now been released,” said a hospital official who declined to be identified.
After being admitted to the hospital on Sunday, Singh underwent routine blood tests and an electrocardiogram (a test to verify his heart condition) in the cardio-neuroscience wing. He had been placed under the care of Nitish Naik of the AIIMS cardiology department.
Congressional leaders said Singh was “perfectly fine on all tests” and was now resting at home.
Singh underwent four-graft cardiac bypass surgery in 1990, and a stenting procedure in 2003. In 2009, she underwent another cardiac bypass surgery at AIIMS during which five grafts were placed to open blocked arteries.
According to hospital officials, Singh had suffered an allergic reaction to a medication and developed a fever.
“He was tested for Covid-19 only as a precautionary measure, and the result was negative,” said the hospital official cited above.
