Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday met RJD supremo Lalu Prasad, who is admitted in AIIMS here after suffering multiple fractures due to a fall, and enquired about his health from doctors.
Former Bihar chief minister Prasad on Wednesday was brought to Delhi in an air ambulance.
Gandhi met Prasad and enquired from doctors about his health, an RJD leader said. Gandhi was accompanied by AICC general secretary organisation, K C Venugopal.
The 74-year-old former Bihar chief minister was brought to Delhi accompanied by a team of doctors and his eldest daughter Misa Bharti, a Rajya Sabha MP who is also an MBBS. His wife Rabri Devi and younger son Tejashwi Yadav reached Delhi before Prasad was moved in the air ambulance to oversee the arrangements in the national capital.

On whether it would be possible to go to Singapore, Tejashwi Yadav had said if in two-four weeks he can undertake international travel "we may take him to Singapore.
