KKN Gurugram Desk | Senior Congress leader and former party president Sonia Gandhi has been hospitalized at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital in New Delhi following a fresh episode of health-related complications. According to the hospital authorities, she was admitted due to abdominal discomfort, marking yet another instance in a series of recent health concerns.

This comes just days after the 78-year-old political veteran had undergone a routine medical check-up at the same hospital and only a few weeks after facing health complications during her visit to Shimla, Himachal Pradesh.

Sonia Gandhi’s Health Deteriorates Again: Timeline of Events

Sources from the Congress party and hospital staff confirmed that Sonia Gandhi was brought to Ganga Ram Hospital on Sunday evening, following complaints of abdominal pain and general unease. Doctors are monitoring her condition closely, and as of now, she is reported to be stable.

This incident adds to a growing list of health concerns she has battled in recent years, especially those related to hypertension, respiratory issues, and digestive disorders.

Earlier Health Episodes: Shimla and February Hospitalization

Just a few days ago, Sonia Gandhi had been on a private visit to Shimla, the capital of Himachal Pradesh. During her stay, she experienced a spike in blood pressure and was rushed to the Indira Gandhi Medical College (IGMC) for a medical evaluation.

Dr. Aman, Deputy Medical Superintendent at IGMC, confirmed, “Her blood pressure was high, but all parameters later stabilized. We discharged her after observation.”

This was not an isolated episode. Back in February 2025, Sonia Gandhi was also admitted to Sir Ganga Ram Hospital due to gastrointestinal complications, making this her second admission this year for similar health concerns.

Routine Check-up Earlier This Month

On June 9, just a week before her latest hospitalization, Sonia Gandhi visited SGRH for a scheduled medical check-up. The visit came two days after her Shimla episode, indicating that her personal medical team had been closely monitoring her post-hospitalization recovery.

Her health has been under watch, especially after a series of health scares over the past 4–5 years. According to Congress insiders, age-related complications and past infections have made her more vulnerable to health fluctuations.

Medical History and Previous Conditions

Sonia Gandhi, who turned 78 this year, has had a long history of health concerns, which includes:

  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)

  • Respiratory Issues that have flared up during the winters

  • Chronic Abdominal Problems requiring regular monitoring

  • A COVID-19 infection in 2022, which also led to hospitalization

She has, on multiple occasions, been advised rest and reduced public engagements, though she continues to participate in key Congress meetings and internal deliberations.

Congress Party Yet to Release an Official Statement

As of now, there has been no official public statement from the Indian National Congress about Sonia Gandhi’s current condition. However, party leaders and workers have expressed concern and sent messages of support on social media.

Several senior Congress figures, including Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, are believed to be in touch with the hospital and closely monitoring her condition.

Security Tightened Around Hospital Premises

With news of her hospitalization circulating, security around Sir Ganga Ram Hospital has been tightened. Delhi Police and hospital authorities have restricted media access and unauthorized entry into the VIP wing of the hospital where she is being treated.

A hospital spokesperson said, “Mrs. Gandhi is under medical observation. Her vitals are stable. Further updates will be provided as appropriate.”

Sonia Gandhi’s Political Relevance Remains Strong

Despite handing over the reins of the Congress party to her son, Rahul Gandhi, and later supporting Mallikarjun Kharge as party president, Sonia Gandhi remains one of the most influential voices in the Congress Working Committee (CWC).

Her strategic role in internal party matters, especially during times of electoral crisis or alliance-building, continues to be significant. Political analysts view her as a unifying figure within the Congress, especially during its internal transitions over the last two decades.

Public Concern and Political Reactions

News of Sonia Gandhi’s hospitalization has triggered concern among political circles and the public. Hashtags such as #SoniaGandhiHealth and #GetWellSoonSonia have started trending on social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter).

Leaders from across party lines, including some from opposition parties, have extended their wishes for her speedy recovery. Messages from prominent personalities in BJP, AAP, and regional parties indicate the wide respect she commands in Indian politics, even from political rivals.

Sir Ganga Ram Hospital: The Go-To Facility for Politicians

Sir Ganga Ram Hospital in New Delhi has become a preferred healthcare center for several high-profile Indian leaders. Known for its expertise in cardiology, gastroenterology, and internal medicine, the hospital has treated top politicians and bureaucrats over the years.

Its secure VIP treatment wing offers confidential, personalized care, especially for elderly political figures like Sonia Gandhi.

As of now, Sonia Gandhi remains stable but under close observation at Ganga Ram Hospital. While there’s no immediate cause for alarm, her recurring hospital visits indicate a fragile health condition that may require continued medical attention and lifestyle moderation.

The Congress party, meanwhile, is expected to issue an official update as soon as her condition further improves or if any procedural developments take place.

Until then, wishes for a speedy recovery continue to pour in for the veteran leader, who has remained a central figure in Indian politics for over two decades.
