The 74-year-old former Bihar chief minister was accompanied to AIIMS by a team of doctors and his eldest daughter Misa Bharti, who is a Rajya Sabha MP.

His wife Rabri Devi and younger son Tejashwi Yadav had reached Delhi earlier on Wednesday, 6 July to oversee the arrangements.

Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had enquired about the health of the Rashtriya Janata Dal supremo.

In a statement, RJD spokesperson Chitaranjan Gagan said, “The PM spoke to Tejashwi Yadav on Tuesday and enquired about the health of the RJD supremo. The PM wished speedy recovery to RJD chief.”

CM Nitish Kumar had met the RJD leader at Paras Hospital, when the latter was being treated there.

"I wish Shri Lalu Prasad Yadav ji a speedy recovery," Kumar wrote in his tweet.
