Former President Pranab Mukherjee continues to be critical at the Army Research and Referral Hospital.

He was admitted a day before and underwent a major surgery for a large brain clot. He is also COVID-19 positive.

A health bulletin today said, “Pranab Mukherjee’s health condition continues to remain critical. Presently he is haemodynamically stable and on ventilator.”

Mukherjee’s daughter Sharmishtha earlier today said, “Last year August 8 was one of the happiest days for me as my dad received Bharat Ratna. Exactly a year later on August 10 he fell critically ill. May God do whatever is best for him give me strength to accept both joys and sorrows of life with equanimity. I sincerely thank all for their concerns.”
