Tofail’s condition ‘stable’ at Delhi hospital

Doctors at a hospital here have described veteran politician Tofail Ahmed’s health condition as “stable” hours after he was flown to the Indian capital for treatment this afternoon as he suffered a stroke in Bangladesh on August 30.

“His condition is stable…we kept him at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for further  observation,” said Dr Arun Garg, head of Neurology Department at Medanta Multi Super Specialty Hospital in Gurgaon, Haryana, about nine kilometres away from New Delhi.

Talking to the BSS New Delhi bureau chief over phone, Dr Garg said that he along with his team examined the ailing leader and suggested some medical check-ups.
