Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman paid a visit to Congress leader and Thiruvananthapuram MP Shashi Tharoor, who is admitted in a hospital after sustaining a head injury while performing a ritual at a Kerala temple.
Congress candidate Shashi Tharoor tweeted this morning that he was touched by Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's gesture of visiting him in hospital a day after he was injured during a religious ritual at a temple in Kerala's Thiruvananthapuram.
The Congress leader was admitted to the Government Medical College in Thiruvananthapuram; he received eight stitches and also tweeted about the incident.
He is likely to be discharged from the hospital today and will resume his campaign.
Mr Tharoor is seeking re-election from Thiruvananthpuram, which is set for a three-cornered fight between the Congress, Left and the BJP.
