Pune, Feb 25: Nationalist Congress Party (Sharad Pawar faction) chief Sharad Pawar was discharged from hospital on Wednesday morning after being treated for dehydration, doctors said.
The 85-year-old Rajya Sabha member was admitted to Ruby Hall Clinic on Sunday after he complained of dehydration.
“He is doing well. He has been discharged and has already left for Mumbai. He has been advised to take rest for the next couple of days before resuming his normal routine,” said Dr Purvez Grant, chief cardiologist, chairman and managing trustee of the private hospital.
Earlier this year, the veteran leader and former Union minister was admitted to the same hospital on February 9 due to a chest infection and was discharged on February 14 after treatment.
Party sources said Pawar is expected to resume his engagements after a brief period of rest.
