Former Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar was admitted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi after collapsing during his morning walk and remaining unconscious for a few minutes. He was initially taken to his residence by security personnel in a Police Control Room (PCR) vehicle. After receiving medical assistance from a team from the Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences (ILBS) and an AIIMS doctor, he was shifted to AIIMS in an ambulance. Dhankhar, 75, is being treated by doctors from the Department of Cardiology at AIIMS’ Cardio-Neuro Centre. This is not the first time Dhankhar has faced a medical emergency; he was previously admitted to AIIMS in March 2025 for chest pain and underwent angioplasty, and he fainted during the golden jubilee celebrations of Kumaon University in June 2025.
