Mamata Banerjee under treatment in ICU

Koltaka : Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee, who ended her 25-day fast late Thursday night, is under treatment in the intensive care unit of a hospital at Kolkata as her heart and pulse rates are low.

Banerjee was under treatment to correct her dehydration, hypoglycaeamia and other nutritional deficiencies, Kakoli Ghoshdastidar, a doctor attending on her, said this morning.

“She is on oxygen unit and intravenous fluid correction,” she said.

Investigation was being carried out to ascertain whether any of her vital organs had failed or not, she said.

Anxious party supporters gathered outside the south Kolkata nursing home to know about the health condition of Banerjee.
