AP CS Sameer Sharma collapses during CM meeting

AMARAVATI: Andhra Pradesh Chief Secretary (CS) Sameer Sharma fell ill once again at the State Secretariat here on Thursday. He reportedly collapsed in his chair during a meeting with bankers, presided over by Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy at the Secretariat.

He was immediately rushed to Manipal Super-Speciality Hospital in Vijayawada. Sharma became unwell last month as well due to heart-related complications. He was then taken to a local hospital before being shifted to a private hospital in Hyderabad.

Sameer Sharma underwent cardiac surgery at the Hyderabad hospital. He has resumed duties only recently after post-operative recuperation.
