13 September, Kathmandu : Health condition of UCPN (Maoist) Vice Chairman Posta Bahadur Bogati is critical but stable, according to doctors involved in his treatment.
He is under observation of a medical team comprising neurologists Dr Basanta Panta, Pankaj Jalan and Yadav Dev Bhatta and the team will decide whether he needs treatment abroad only Monday morning after studying his situation this night.
Doctors involved in his treatment and party top leaders discussed whether he should be taken abroad for further treatment, party Spokesperson Dinanath Sharma said.
Leader Bogati was hospitalised after he suffered a cardiac arrest and stroke on Thursday night.
Simultaneous heart attack and stroke has made the situation critical, according to Dr Bhatta.
Doctors are finding difficulties to conduct a surgery of his brain, which is found to have suffered a blood clot.
Earlier, leader Bogati had been admitted to Bansbari-based Sahid Gangalal National Heart Center where he went an angioplasty. He was shifted to Thapathali-based Norvic International Hospital Friday for further treatment.
Party Chairman Puspa Kamal Dahal, senior leader Dr Baburam Bhattarai, General Secretary Krishna Bahadur Mahara, CPN (UML) leader Bharat Mohan Adhikari and Nepali Congress leader Arjun Narsingh KC, among others were at the Norvic Hospital to take health updates of ailing leader Bogati. RSS
