Unfortunately, his condition has worsened over the last 24 hours. His condition is critical and he’s on life support system.”

The 93-year-old veteran BJP leader was a diabetic, who was surviving only on one kidney. In 2009, the former prime minister had suffered a stroke that led him to weak cognitive abilities. Vajpayee, who had also developed dementia, was a recipient of Bharat Ratna, which he’d received at his residence on March 27, 2015.
Vajpayee was under the supervision of pulmonologist Dr Randeep Guleria, who’s currently the Director of AIIMS. Dr Guleria had served as a personal physician to Vajpayee for over three decades.
Earlier in the evening on August 15, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Minister Smriti Irani, Railway Minister Piyush Goyal, Union Minister Suresh Prabh, BJP lawmaker Meenakshi Lekhi paid a visit to AIIMS to enquire about the veteran leaders health. Vajpayee is survived by adopted daughter Namita.

Congress leader Prakash Rathod, on Friday, was caught on camera while allegedly scrolling through few adult content clips in the State Assembly. This turned out to be a huge embarrassment for both, Congress and Rathod as regional channels aired the video, in which he was ?caught in the act.
The MLC member was present in the house during the proceedings of the legislative council. While the house was in session, Rathod was watching adult content on his smartphone.
However, he threw these charges under the bus and said, I was looking for materials for a question I wanted to ask the government in question hour.
?When I was looking for question material, I deleted too many messages as my phone storage was full. What the media has shown or seen, I don’t know. I would never do such things or see such things, he added.
This was not the first time in Karnataka that such an incident had happened. Back in 2012, three Bharatiya Janata Party ministers were caught on camera allegedly watching adult content in the State Assembly. Following the scandal, they resigned from the state government due to public embarrassment.
