The doctors have done clinical investigations on his health and he has been getting monitored by a team of medical professionals. Sources close to the development say that Ramachandran is doing fine and stable. The minister has sought an appointment from his family doctor Senguttuvan for a regular health check-up. Sources further say that as Senguttuvan was out of country, he reached out to minister after coming back to Chennai.

Her hospitalization was filled with several rumors and that such rumors are also being spread about all the high-profile cases getting admitted to the hospital.
