What's the story

Nepal President Ram Chandra Poudel has been shifted to Delhi's All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) from Kathmandu's Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital on Wednesday.

Notably, the president was admitted to a hospital in Nepal for the second time this month.

The 78-year-old reportedly has an infection in his lungs, which caused his oxygen level to dip.

More information

On April 1, Poudel was admitted to a hospital in his home country for the first time after he complained of some problem in his stomach.

This time, he was airlifted from Nepal to India in an air ambulance around 10.30am on Wednesday, accompanied by his son Chintan Poudel.
