K.P Bhattarai hospitalised


Former Prime Minister and founding leader of Nepali Congress Krishna Prasad Bhattarai has been admitted to Norvic Hospital at Thapathali, Kathmandu, after respiratory complications.
Bhattarai, 87, was taken to hospital Monday afternoon after he complained of uneasiness in the chest and fever. Cardiologist Dr Bharat Rawal has been attending him.
The veteran Congress leader, who has been kept in the VIP CCU ward, is out of danger, according to hospital sources.
Keeping distance from active politics for the past few years, Bhattarai lives at a government-donated house in Godavari, Lalitpur, with a few aides.
