NEW DELHI: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge was admitted to a hospital in Bengaluru for treatment on Wednesday, reports news agency ANI.
Kharge was admitted at the MS Ramaiah Hospital. Doctors said they are treating the 83-year-old leader.
"The leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha was taken to hospital on Tuesday as he developed fever and complained of leg pain. He is fine, nothing to worry. Doctors are monitoring," a Congress leader was quoted as saying to PTI.
On September 24, Kharge participated in an extended Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting in Patna, Bihar.
It was later announced on September 29 that he is scheduled to address a public rally in Kohima, Nagaland, on October 7.
According to Congress leaders, the rally, themed “Safe Democracy, Safe Secularism, and Safe Nagaland,” is expected to draw at least 10,000 people. It will focus on key issues such as youth employment, entrepreneurship, good governance, and road connectivity. The event will also include separate meetings between Kharge and senior members of the Congress Political Affairs Committee, Pro-Committee, and District Congress Committee presidents.
Congress MP Jamir said the rally is more than a party event; it is a platform to highlight challenges facing Nagaland and the Northeast. He urged citizens, especially minorities, to join and voice their concerns, which will be carried forward by regional leaders. Kharge will be accompanied by national leaders including Congress General Secretary (Organisation) KC Venugopal and Nagaland in-charge MP Saptagiri Sankar Ulaka.
