Jaitley was being monitored by a team of experts including endocrinologist, nephrologist and cardiologist in the hospital. Due to ailing health, the senior BJP leader was not a part of the Modi-led government at the Centre. He had undergone a renal transplant on May 14 last year at AIIMS. In September 2014, he underwent bariatric surgery to correct the weight he had gained because of a long-standing diabetic condition.
