Vajpayee, 86, who has age-related ailments, has been found in “a fine condition”, AIIMS spokesperson Y.K. Gupta told IANS.

“Vajpayee came to AIIMS for a routine checkup and his condition is alright. He underwent a change of tracheostomical tube,” Randeep Guleria, professor in the department of medicine in AIIMS who supervised the examination, said.

He said the tube was changed to avoid infection.

On Feb 13 last year, the veteran Bharatiya Janata Party leader had undergone a tracheotomy at AIIMS after being admitted following a chest infection.
