Six Nepali ministers suffer from jaundice
Afp, Kathmandu
Six Nepali ministers are suffering from jaundice believed to have been caught from contaminated water at the prime minister's residence, Nepal's health minister told AFP Friday. "Six ministers have been suffering from jaundice over the past few weeks. KP Oli (deputy prime minister and minister for foreign affairs) is quite seriously ill," said Amik Sherchan, a deputy prime minister and minister for health. Two other ministers remain hospitalised but the other three have been discharged, Sherchan said. One of the sick ministers, Hridayesh Tripathi, resigned on Monday over the government's handling of recent unrest in the southeast of the country.
