Bengaluru, Dec 7: Sri Shivakumara Swamiji, the centenarian head of Sri Siddaganga Mutt in Tumakuru, was airlifted on Friday to Chennai for treatment after he suffered gall balder infection and fever.

The seer was taken in an Air Ambulance from HAL Airport. At Chennai he will be admitted to Rela Institute of Medical Centre for treatment.

Earlier in the day, a team of doctors, including Siddaganga Hospital and Research Centre’s director Dr Parameshwarappa, and mutt authorities, including the junior pontiff, held long deliberations about shifting the pontiff to Dr Rela Insitute and Medical Centre at Chromepet in Chennai.

The doctors consulted Dr Mohamed Rela, an expert in liver transplantation at Chennai, who agreed to examine the ailing pontiff. Sources said Dr Rela had in the past visited the mutt and sought the seer’s blessings. “The seer had his normal food and is responding to the treatment,” a source in the mutt said.

Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr G Parameshwara called on the 111-year-old Swamiji at the Mutt in Tumakaru and inquired about his health. Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy is also in close touch with the junior seer of Siddaganga Math getting updates of his health and arranged for his travel to Chennai on an Air Ambulance.
