Anna Hazare's condition stable

Pune, Jan 4: The condition of Anna Hazare, who is suffering from bronchitis, is stable and improving, doctors attending on him said on Wednesday.

"Hazare's chest X-ray and blood tests are normal," Dr Parag Sancheti said. 74-year-old Hazare was shifted from Ralegan Siddhi to the Sancheti Hospital on December 31. He had been suffering from viral infection, since he undertook a fast on December 27, which was subsequently withdrawn the next day.

"Hazare spent a restful night and if the improvement continues on the expected lines, he can be discharged on Sunday," Sancheti said. Visitors are not allowed to meet hospital authorities to ensure complete rest for the Gandhian.
