LK Advani's Previous Hospitalisations The former Deputy Prime Minister has experienced recurring age-related health concerns in recent years. In May 2026, Advani was admitted to the same hospital for medical evaluation and treatment before being discharged a few days later. He was also hospitalised several times in 2024, including admissions to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences and Apollo Hospital in New Delhi. His latest hospitalisation comes shortly after PM Modi visited him at his residence on October 7, marking 25 years since Modi first assumed office as Gujarat Chief Minister. LK Advani's Contributions to Indian Politics Advani is among the founding figures of the BJP and played a prominent role in its emergence as a major national political party. He served as Union Home Minister from 1998 to 2004 and Deputy Prime Minister from 2002 to 2004 under Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. He also served three terms as BJP president and was closely associated with the Ram Janmabhoomi movement. Advani received the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian honour, in 2024.
