New Delhi Former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who is undergoing treatment at AIIMS, is fully conscious and is breathing on his own, a senior doctor said on Sunday.

"He is breathing on his own and he is fully conscious," Dr Sampath Kumar, chief of Cardio Thoracic Vascular Sciences Department at the hospital, said.

Kumar said 84-year-old Vajpayee is doing well and his ventilatory support has been removed.

"We will monitor his condition for two to three days before taking any decision on removing his ventilatory support permanently," he said.

Vajpayee's basic parameters like heart, kidney, liver and blood pressure were normal and he had recovered from pneumonia.

The BJP leader was admitted to AIIMS on February 3 following complaints of chest infection. He was later diagnosed with pneumonia and put on ventilatory support.

Who are Fascists? by KP Pillai on 16 Feb 2009

India did not become a fascist country; just because the country has an overwhelming Hindu majority. Wherever fanatism prevailed, it became a breeding center for terrorism; the latest example being Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Al Qaeeda grew from Saudi Arabia for which Pakistan allotted the base for Afghanistan. Now it has started capturing portions and portions of Pakistan. This is in addition to tens of other private limited Terrorists companies operating there. Facing with the reality, Saudi has now set out with a moderate face to live like others, the latest is inclusion of a Woman Minister!!!. So, people who write about Hindu fanatism should first realize, how grim situation, they or their preachers made for the universe.

AYUB, THE FANATIC IDIOT by ANIYAN on 16 Feb 2009

AYUB FIRST DOES NOT KNOW WHAT MILLION MEANS ! SUCH FANATIC WRITERS IN THIS COLUMN CANNOT CREATE A COMMUNAL DIVIDE IN INDIA, GIVEN THE FACT THAT EITHER HE IS A PAKISTANI OR ASSOCIATED WITH PAKISTANI TERRORISTS. LET HIM HEAR THAT WE INDIANS ARE CONSCIOUS OF EVERYTHING AND HE SHOULD NOT REPEAT THOSE REHTORICS WHICH HE DID TOWARDS HIS MOTHER AND FATHER, WHO ARE RESTING IN HELL, TO HAVE GIVEN BIRTH OF AN INHUMAN LIKE HIM.

Fanatic Idiots by Village Boy on 17 Feb 2009

As if you are any different. Half brained people like you too are the curse of India.

Vajpayee, the Hindu fascist by m.a.ayub gohar on 16 Feb 2009

do you want all people to worship and praise him. He was the chief of you ,the Hindu fascists and not all Indians.You might be continuing to do 'Linga' worship for him in continuation to your mother's.

Aniyan, the byproduct of Vajpayee's dubious actions by m.a.ayub gohar on 16 Feb 2009

Don't you know that your Vajpayeeji was cheating you and all other Hindu fascists like you by pretending to be a 'brahmachari'; he was actually an womanizer. As per the information I received from an Indian who worked in the security section of foreign ministry when Vajpayee was the foreign minister under the Janatha rule(post emergency) that nearly all the ladies working in a famous hotel in New Delhi were his concubines and he has seen him lying on his bed with his former housekeeper who is a Mrs.I do not criticize him for being a womanizer but for pretending to be 'brahmachari' to serve the cause of Hindus,i.e. Hindu fascists, by subjecting Muslims to carnages and holocausts.Perhaps, you will not know that you are a byproduct of his womanizing actions, which your idolatry mother and father would have willingly conceded while worshipping his Linga.Otherwise, do you want those who were affected by his fascist actions to worship him when he struggles with his life and final breath?

Vajpayee, the perishing fascist by M.A.Ayub Gohar on 16 Feb 2009

Is he conscious of the Hindu fascism and terrorism which he unleashed on the helpless and unarmed Muslim minority of India perishing the lives of millions of innocent Muslims?Is he conscious of his action of converting Indian police force into a force of Hindu terrorists ? The souls of millions of Muslims buried all over India may be haunting him and holding his breath.

Fanatic Ayub Gohar by Krishnan on 16 Feb 2009

Where is this Ayub when Hindus are killed by Muslims in Kashmir, Kerala and Godhra. Hindu shops are attacked when they protest against Bush. Hindus were killed when a truck rammed into a Muslim crowd by mistake. English media playing second fiddle to minority fanatic Sonia also cover up such incidents

Best PM by Seema on 16 Feb 2009

Get well soon Vajpayee ji, the best PM of India.

Vajpayee, Best PM by JAS on 16 Feb 2009

Seema didi,please control you emotions. You are getting carried away from your senses.If you are trying to make him feel good then it is ok. If you are RRS member then it is also ok to say such outrageous things. But belonging to RRS is not ok.
