Vijayakanth, the chairman and general secretary of the DMDK party, first fell ill during the 2014 parliamentary general
elections and then went to
singapore for
health treatment, and later he took part in electioneering works after taking temporary medicines. However, after the election, his condition worsened and he was treated in
singapore at the
queen Elizabeth Hospital for a complete overhaul.
His voice was affected after this treatment and slowly his condition worsened due to thyroid problems, throat infections, and kidney problems. From 2017 to 2018, he spent 10 days in
chennai, then went to
singapore and the
united states for further medical care, but nothing improved. Vijayakanth later came to
chennai and he was being monitored by a special medical team, but his condition stayed as it was earlier.
In this case, After two years, Vijayakanth is moving to
dubai today for a medical examination and close sources revealed that a famous
doctor in
london goes to
dubai to give him walking and speech training and after that, he will be undergoing a medical examination. His photo from
airport in
chennai shocked everyone as we saw him in a Wheel Chair aided by his assistant Kumar and son Shanmuga Pandian.
