Somnath Chatterjee gets an eye check up

Lok Sabha Speaker Somnath Chatterjee underwent a routine eye check at L V Prasad Eye Institute in Hyderabad on Thursday. Chatterjee underwent cataract surgery two weeks ago and he is absolutely normal, an institute official said. He also underwent some checks at the Asian Institute of Gastroenterology.

When newsmen tried to contact Chatterjee for his stand on nuclear deal and his continuation in office, his aides kept the media away. He is likely to return to Delhi later in the night.
