However, NDTV has quoted sources as saying that Sonia Gandhi's health had worsened while she was emplaned to New Delhi.


Due to this, the doctors accompanying her decided to hospitalise her immediately after she landed in the national capital.


The 69-year-old Congress chief returned here by a chartered flight close to midnight after she had to abandon the 8-km roadshow in Varanasi midway due to illness.


 


Gandhi was admitted to the Army's Research and Referral Hospital here late last night due to high fever.


 


Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar and Army chief Gen Dalbir Singh Suhag visited the Congress president at the R&R Hospital during her stay.


Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi, were by her side. Her son-in-law Robert Vadra also visited her.
