Naidu unrelenting though his health worsens

On the sixth day of his indefinite fast on Wednesday, N. Chandrababu Naidu's health showed significant deterioration causing concern to Telugu Desam Party leaders and his family members.

Mr. Naidu rejected numerous appeals from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy and leaders of parties across the political spectrum, including the TDP, to call off his fast. He insisted that the government concede all his demands to provide relief to rain-hit farmers, but the Chief Minister appeared in no mood to oblige him. The TDP and other opposition parties will stage anational highway blockade on Thursday.

As his health began worsening, Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) doctors made makeshift arrangements in the emergency ward on a par with an intensive care unit. They said his key parameters like pulse rate (86 per minute), blood pressure (140/80 mmHg), respiratory rate (20 per minute) and urine sugar remained, by andlarge, normal. But the fall in potassium level (4.5 meq/L) was causing concern as it could impact kidney functioning. Sodium levels too were found to be below normal and any further fall could result in severe complications.

Alarmed by this development, TDP leaders held consultations with the Left parties and convened back-to-back meetings of the Polit Bureau and TD Legislature Party. “We are trying our best toconvince him to call off the fast as his health is precious to us,” Polit Bureau member Ummareddy Venkateswarlu said. The Polit Bureau condemned the State and Central governments for their “negligent attitude” in dealing with the situation.
