Amit Shah, India’s home minister and the top lieutenant of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, was admitted to hospital again for a check-up ahead of a scheduled session of parliament, the All India Institute for Medical Sciences said in a statement.
This is the third time that 55-year-old Shah has been hospitalized since first testing positive for Covid-19 on Aug. 3. He was discharged less than two weeks later, but was treated again within days after complaints of fatigue and body aches.
Shah’s check-up is in line with advice he was given when he was last discharged from hospital, and the minister is likely to spend one to two days at the state-run facility, the institute said.
Earlier, news agency IANS reported that Shah was admitted to the hospital at about 11 p.m. Saturday due to breathing issues, and that his condition is stable. Shah has been Modi’s right-hand man for more than three decades.
