Indefinite fast | Jagan Reddy refuses to take medical help

Doctors say the YSR Congress chief refuses to be put on intravenous fluids

YSR Congress president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, who was shifted to a government hospital here from jail following a five day-long indefinite fast against bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, has refused to be put on intravenous fluids, doctors said.

The sugar levels of Reddy have come down due to the fast though other parameters like blood pressure were normal this morning, they said.

He has refused to be put on intravenous fluids, they said.

Police last night shifted Jaganmohan Reddy from the Chanchalguda jail here to the state-run Osmania General Hospital amid heavy security.

The jailed Kadapa MP, who has been lodged at the Chanchalguda Central Prison since May last year after his arrest by the CBI on corruption charges, launched an indefinite fast last Sunday.
