Tarun Gogoi is admitted at GMCH. His condition deteriorated on Monday morning after the dialysis yesterday. Assam Health minister Himanta Biswa Sarma visited the veteran leader this morning and said that multi-organ failure has set in. Doctors are doing their best but this is the time prayers are needed.
The veteran's leader's daughter has reached from the US and had visited her father in the hospital.
Several political leaders across party lines and artistes like Zubeen Garg have visited the leader.
Prayers are being held across Assam for speedy recovery of the politician who is respected and loved by all.
