Sonia Gandhi shows ‘excellent progress’, discharge expected soon, say doctors

Senior Congress leader Sonia Gandhi has made “excellent progress” and is now “absolutely normal”, with a decision on her discharge expected soon, doctors said on Monday (March 30, 2025).

She was admitted to Sir Ganga Ram Hospital on March 24, around 10.22 p.m., after developing a fever.

According to hospital chairman Dr. Ajay Swaroop, Ms. Gandhi remains on IV antibiotics, which will continue for a few more days, though all her parameters are within normal limits.

“The decision regarding her discharge will be taken jointly after discussion with the patient and the treating physician. Otherwise, she is hale and hearty,” he said.

Doctors said she is undergoing treatment for a systemic infection and is responding well to antibiotics.

She is under the supervision of a team of senior doctors, and her condition is stable. Ms. Gandhi may remain under observation briefly as a precaution.
