JP Nadda stable after angioplasty at AIIMS Delhi

Union health minister Jagat Prakash Nadda underwent angioplasty at AIIMS Delhi on August 17 and is stable, the hospital said in a statement. The Times of India reports that Nadda was admitted after experiencing uneasiness and underwent tests including a coronary angiography before the procedure.

Timesnownews.com reports that the 65-year-old minister remains under observation in the Department of Cardiology. Both sources cite an AIIMS press release confirming his stable condition. Angioplasty, also called percutaneous coronary intervention, is a minimally invasive procedure to open narrowed heart arteries, often performed after angiography if a significant blockage is found.
