Reports that Finance Minister Arun Jaitley is unwell and is abroad for treatment - just days before he is to present the Budget -- had leaders across the political spectrum rooting for his quick recovery on Wednesday. The 66-year-old is in the US for a "regular medical check-up" following a kidney transplant last year, news agency Reuters reported on Tuesday quoting "two people with direct knowledge of the matter".
Congress president Rahul Gandhi said in a tweet that he was "upset" to hear about the minister's poor health. "I'm upset to hear Arun Jaitley Ji is not well. We fight him on a daily basis for his ideas. However, I and the Congress party send him our love and best wishes for a speedy recovery. We are with you and your family 100% during this difficult period Mr Jaitley," Mr Gandhi said.
