Ghisingh admitted to hospital

Siliguri, Oct. 24: GNLF president Subash Ghisingh was admitted to a private nursing home in Matigara this morning after he complained of weakness.

P.D. Bhutia, the doctor under whose care Ghisingh was admitted, said the 78-year-old GNLF leader was brought in around 4.30am. Matigara, where Ghisingh also stays, is on the outskirts of Siliguri.

“He was complaining of giddiness, lethargy and weakness. On preliminary examination his blood pressure was low. We are running tests on him. Apart from low haemoglobin count and vitamin deficiency, the reports of the routine blood tests are normal,” Bhutia said.

The doctor said the GNLF leader would be kept at the nursing home for a day or two.

He said Ghisingh had been admitted to the day care ward of the nursing home a fortnight ago with similar complaints.
