KATHMANDU: Doctors treating Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli on Tuesday said he was recovering, but he would still be kept in the hospital for observation. They said he had started having normal diet from Tuesday morning. Oli, who had been suffering from seasonal influenza since Friday, was admitted to Manmohan Cardiothoracic Vascular and Transplant Centre at Tribhubvan University Teaching Hospital, in Maharajgunj yesterday morning following chest infection and blood sugar level fluctuation. The prime minister’s personal doctor Divya Singh said his respiratory tract infection and blood sugar level were now under control. She said although Oli wanted to return to work, they would keep him in the hospital until he completely recovered and the antibiotics course got over. “He also needs rest,” Singh told THT. “Hopefully, he will be discharged by tomorrow.”
