Chennai, July 27 (IBNS): Former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK patriarch M Karunanidhi's health has slightly deteriorated as he was being treated at his home in Chennai, media reports said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is now in South Africa, spoke to his son MK Stalin and daughter Kanimozhi over the phone and inquired about the nonagenarian leader's health.
The PM also offered all help for Karunanidhi's treatment.
"Spoke to Thiru @mkstalin and Kanimozhi Ji. Enquired about the health of Kalaignar Karunanidhi Ji and offered any assistance required. I pray for his quick recovery and good health," Modi tweeted.
Karunanidhi,94, is being treated for fever due to urinary tract infection with intravenous antibiotics and fluids.
On Friday, Tamil Nadu ministers and actor-turned-politician Kamal Hassan visited Karunanidhi at his Gopalapuram residence.
Tamil Nadu Deputy Chief Minister O Paneerselvam was among the ministers who visited the DMK chief's house.
Karunanidhi is being treated by a team of doctors as his family has decided against admitting him in a hospital.
