Bengaluru, Mar 16: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah who suffered from sleep apnoea for a long time in the past is said to have recovered from it.

Siddaramaih’s family doctor Ravikumar and the team of doctors from Prashanthi yoga centre had advised him to practice yoga to overcome sleep apnoea. The CM who took the advise seriously, started practicing yoga about six months back.

He devoted not less than an hour for yoga even between his busy schedules. Now the result is to be seen.

His close associates say that the CM has completely come out from sleep apnoea. They also say that breathing problems related to apnoea are not to be seen now. More importantly the CM is a different person now with more energy in him.

The CM, who has presented the highest number of budgets in the state, had to attend several meetings with concerned officials before presenting the budget this time. It was not difficult as before for the CM to attend these meetings. He did not show any signs of exhaustion.

And then came a tougher test. On the budget day, Siddaramaiah proved how active he is because of Yoga. For three hours he did not even touch a drop of water. He managed to read out 184 pages of the budget without any break.

Sources say that Siddaramaiah is enjoying his yoga sessions. He hardly takes calls during yoga unless the call is very important. He has made some changes in his food habits also. He does not eat outside food when he is Bengaluru.
