PM Modi said that people across India are praying for the speedy recovery of Singh. Taking to Twitter, PM Modi wrote: "Countless people across India are praying for the speedy recovery of Kalyan Singh Ji. Yesterday @JPNadda Ji, CM @myogiadityanath Ji and others went to the hospital to meet him. I just spoke to his grandson and enquired about his health."
While talking about Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president JP Nadda's visit to Kalyan Singh, PM Modi said: "I was deeply touched to know that during his conversation with @JPNadda Ji, Kalyan Singh Ji remembered me.
