Yuvraj with Cancer : Government should and will help him - Sports Minister


Sports Minister Ajay Maken has promised government help to cricketer Yuvraj Singh, who is undergoing chemotherapy in the United States to recover from lung cancer.


"Wish Yuvraj a speedy recovery! Asking officials to find the quantum and nature of help required. Government should and will help him," Maken tweeted.


The 30-year-old left-hander has been in US since last month being treated for what was earlier claimed to be a tumour in the lungs by his family.

His physiotherapist Dr Jatin Chaudhary has, however, assured that the ailment is curable and the batsman would be fit to resume cricket in May.

"It is a rare tumour and is cancerous but it has been detected in stage one itself. Doctors had to decide whether to continue medication or go for chemotherapy but since parts of the tumour are just above the artery of his heart, there was a danger that while running it could burst. But it is 100 per cent curable," Chaudhary said.

"The doctors decided that he would have to undergo chemotherapy and he travelled to the US on January 26. End of March, he would undergo a CT scan and should recover by then. After that it is just some rehabilitation in April before he is fit to be back on the field in May," Chaudhary added.

    News : Hundreds of people on fast more than Hundred Days to protect them from Nuclrear Disaster fearing that their livelihood is affected and if sth goes wrong our generation will be vanished. KKNPP protesters are attacked

    Govt Reaction : They are terrorists, they are against nations growth, File cases against them, We don't care whether you die or live... We want to be good to be people with money and who bribe as for any project
