When asked about the condition of the MlA, Dr Narayan said that for a doctor she is also just like another patient to him. As of now, taking no chances, we are taking it seriously. Anything could be said keeping her under observation for some time,” he added. Sita has been lodged in cottage number 14 of RIMS and has been kept under tight security.
According to the medical prescription, Sita Soren has a blood pressure of 136/90 who is also suffering from hypothyroidism. Since, she has a family history of coronary heart disease; doctors have recommended her to be admitted in the hospital.
