Lalu Yadav's kidneys functioning at only 25%'

Jailed RJD supremo Lalu Yadav may have to undergo dialysis as both his kidneys are functioning at only 25 percent. Dr Umesh Prasad, who is treating LaluYadav at Rajendra Institute of Medical Science (RIMS) in Ranchi, said there was no improvement in the functioning of LaluYadav's kidneys and his condition is worsening day by day. He said, "We have informed all the concerned departments and officials in this regard. Earlier, his kidneys were functioning at 35 per cent which has now gone down to 25 per cent. The kidney ailment has reached the fourth stage". When Yadav was admitted at RIMS, his kidney functioning level was in the third stage and for two years under the care of doctors at RIMS it functioned in a better manner, added the doctor. Yadav has been receiving treatment at the paying ward of RIMS since August, 2018. He was shifted to RIMS Director's bungalow in September and sent back to the paying ward after his alleged telephone call to try and influence a Bihar BJP legislator surfaced. Last week, the CBI asked the Jharkhand High Court that LaluYadav be sent back to BirsaMunda Central Jail in Ranchi as his condition was fine and said his treatment can be done in jail itself. (IANS)
