NEW DELHI: The health of anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare, who was admitted to a private hospital in Pune after suffering from viral infection, is not improving. Doctor Paresh Sancheti said, "Anna's health has not improved, he is not feeling any better. He could not sleep properly in night due to cough problem."

The doctor also said that Hazare's discharge which was scheduled for Friday has been postponed till Sunday.

Anna was rushed from his village Ralegan Siddhi to Sancheti hospital in Pune late on Saturday night after complaining of chest congestion.

The 74-year-old was so weak that he had to be carried on a stretcher. Ill-health is what made Anna break his fast on December 28. His Team's core committee was to meet on Monday to discuss their next course of action but that meeting was also postponed.

The activist has been suffering from a viral infection since he undertook his fast on December 27, which was subsequently withdrawn the next day.
