Kolkata As Prime Minister Manmohan Singh recuperates from a bypass surgery, his two sisters — Preetam Kaur and Naveen Kaur — and their family members here are preparing to visit New Delhi soon.

“We are very concerned about his health. We have heard that the surgery was successful. We had earlier decided that we will go to New Delhi today. But since one of our family members is sick we had to cancel the visit. We will leave shortly,” said a family member.

On Saturday, both the sisters attended a mass prayer at a gurudwara in the city for the well being of the Prime Minister.

Prayers by people of all faiths were also held in different parts of the city.

Preetam Kaur had recently been to the national capital to enquire about the health of her brother. Meanwhile, an all faith prayer meeting was held at another gurudwara in south Kolkata at the instance of West Bengal Pradesh Congress Committee (WBPCC). WBPCC acting president Pradip Bhattacharya, who took part in the prayer along with WBPCC secretary Tulsi Mukherjee, said that members from different religions prayed for the well-being of the Prime

Minister.
