YSR Congress party president YS Jaganmohan Reddy was on Saturday force-fed as his condition started deteriorating after being on an indefinite fast for the past seven days.
On the direction from Chanchalguda Jail officials, doctors at Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) forcibly gave intravenous (IV) fluids to Jagan as his condition was worsening, a hospital official said.
Jagan's wife Bharati was by his side when doctors administered IV fluids to him. She reached hospital after the CBI court permitted her to stay with him daily from 8am to 4pm.
Jagan, as the MP from Kadapa is popularly known, was shifted late Friday night to Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) for better treatment but he refused to end the fast, which entered the seventh day on Saturday.
The Kadapa MP is protesting bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh without justice to all regions.
Amid tight security, Jagan who is in judicial custody in disproportionate assets case, was shifted from Osmania General Hospital to NIMS on Friday.
A team of eight doctors is monitoring the condition of the young leader, who has been admitted to emergency block. As the sugar and blood pressure levels have considerably come down and ketone bodies in urine are high, doctors advised him to agree to take intravenous fluids.
