Lokayukta Santosh Hegde on Thursday called on Uplokayukta S. B. Majage at a private hospital where he is undergoing treatment after he suffered a massive heart attack a day after he took over his post.

Mr. Hegde wished him a speedy recovery and later enquired about Mr. Majage’s health from doctors. Doctors attending on Mr. Majage at the Cardiac Care Unit of Mallya Hospital said Mr. Majage underwent angioplasty on July 20 after suffering a massive heart attack.

“He is still on a few infusions which are required after the procedure. He is recovering and it will take another three to four days to shift him to the ward where he will be observed before being discharged”, the doctors said.

Mr. Majage was sworn in as the Upalokayukta on July 19.
