“She might need to stay at the hospital quite longer,” a hospital source said, informing that her condition was stable.
Consultant neurologist Dr Pankaj Jalan has been attending to the former royal.
The hospital has been just giving her “a conservative medication” and observing the effects, the source added.
It has been learned that Gyanendra visited his 39-year-old daughter at the Hospital on Friday and Saturday.[4]
On 20 April 2021 the former king and queen tested positive for COVID-19 on their return from the Maha Kumbh, a religious festival in India attended by millions of Hindu pilgrims.
