New Delhi: Congress President Sonia Gandhi has been admitted to Delhi’s Sir Ganga Ram Hospital after a bout of food poisoning. Hospital chairman D.S. Rana said the 70-year-old, who was admitted on Sunday, is better and will be discharged today.

Sonia Gandhi had been away from the public eye in the run up to the latest round of Assembly elections.

She had not campaigned even in her family turf in Amethi and Rae Bareli. Her last public appearance was at a rally in Varanasi in August, when she had taken ill mid-way and had to be brought back to New Delhi.

In March, she had returned from the US where she had gone for medical treatment. The party has not revealed anything about her medical condition.
