Former President Pranab Mukherjee’s medical condition remains unchanged, the Army (R&R) Hospital announced on Friday.
In a statement issued by the hospital, it was stated that Mukherjee is under intensive care and continues to be on ventilation and said that his vital parameters are presently stable.
The former President has been undergoing treatment at Army (R&R) Hospital since Monday.
He underwent critical brain surgery to remove a clot in his brain after he suffered a fall at his Rajaji Marg residence on Sunday.
Several rumours about his health condition have been doing the rounds on social media.
“My Father Shri Pranab Mukherjee is still alive & haemodynamically stable! Speculations & fake news being circulated by reputed Journalists on social media clearly reflects that Media in India has become a factory of Fake News,” tweeted Pranab Mukherjee’s elder son and former Congress MP Abhijit Mukherjee.
