According to the doctors at the Apollo Hospital, Sharmila’s health is stable now.

Doctors from Apollo Hospitals earlier stated that Sharmila’s blood pressure and glucose levels have fallen down to alarming levels, and she expressed concern over dehydration which could lead to electrolyte imbalance, potent enough to pose a danger to her kidneys.

It is known that on Friday, Sharmila alleged that the police were not allowing her to continue a ‘padayatra’ (foot march) despite her having the court’s permission.

“I am sitting here on hunger strike demanding that democracy be protected in Telangana and that I am allowed to continue my padayatra,” she had said.
