New Delhi, March 28 (IANS) Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who underwent a coronary bypass surgery late January and has been making public appearances since early this month, will be ready for “all kinds of physical strain” in another 12 weeks, his personal physician said Saturday.
“The prime minister is doing very well and has been making public appearances. But it will take another 12 weeks for him to be ready for all kinds of physical exertion and complete recovery,” K.S. Reddy, the prime minister’s personal physician, told IANS here at a conference on public health.
