Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister G Parameshwara was admitted to Vydehi Hospital in Bengaluru on Tuesday, 27 October, after he experienced discomfort while attending an event of the Karnataka State Badminton Association. Sources said he had a respiratory problem, and Deccan Herald reported he complained of chest pain and fatigue. Parameshwara later posted on X that his heart rate had increased slightly, and he had gone to the hospital as a precaution.

Chief Minister D K Shivakumar, Home Minister Priyank Kharge and Health Minister U T Khader visited the hospital. Khader told reporters Parameshwara had undergone examinations, was stable and speaking normally. The Deputy Chief Minister urged the public not to visit him, saying he did not want to inconvenience other patients. Doctors will decide on further treatment after assessing his condition.
All five outlets report the same event, Deputy Chief Minister G Parameshwara's hospitalisation on 27 October, but differ on the nature of the complaint. The Hindu, Times of India and Deccan Chronicle describe a ‘respiratory problem’ or ‘uneasiness’ and a stable condition, with the latter quoting Parameshwara himself saying his heart rate had increased slightly. New Indian Express alone specifies a ‘heart-related problem’, while Deccan Herald mentions ‘chest pain, fatigue and breathing discomfort’. No source attributes a diagnosis to the treating doctors, Health Minister Khader is quoted across outlets saying Parameshwara is stable. The factual differences leave the exact ailment unconfirmed. The next concrete detail rests with the hospital's doctors, who, according to Khader, will decide further treatment.
