Former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Kalyan Singh was on Saturday (July 3, 2021) admitted to a hospital in Lucknow. As per sources, Singh, a senior BJP leader, was taken to Lohia Hospital after reporting a swelling in the body.
On receiving the news of Kalyan Singh’s hospitalisation, incumbent UP CM Yogi Adityanath on Sunday morning visited the 89-year old and inquired about his health condition.
This is to be noted that in 2020, the veteran leader was admitted to a hospital after testing positive for COVID-19. He was then discharged after over a month on October 12.
Kalyan Singh had first become the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister in 1991 when the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had reportedly come to the power with a majority for the first time under his leadership.
Singh has also served as the Rajasthan Governor.
