The condition of the fasting Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) president, K. Chandrasekhara Rao (KCR), worsening day by day and the medical team attending on him said it could no longer sustain him on artificial medical management.
According to Dr G. Satyanarayana, medical superintendent of NIMS, KCR is becoming weaker day by day due to lack of vital proteins as a result of starvation. With weight loss due to starvation and lack of body proteins, KCR has become a patient of hypoproteinemia.
KCR is conscious and is able to speak now, but if he continues his fast, he could slip into coma. Even after TRS politburo members request to give up the fast, KCR said "I don't mind losing my life for Telangana."
