              Gurgaon: The condition 
              of former prime minister Inder Kumar Gujral is "very critical", 
              doctors said Monday.
 Gujral, 93, was admitted to the Medicity Medanta Hospital here 
              with a lung infection on Nov 19, and is still on the ventilator.
 
 "He is very critical, medicines are not showing much effect, good 
              wishes can help him better," a senior medical consultant, who did 
              not wish to be named, told IANS.
 
 Another senior consultant at the hospital termed Gujral's 
              condition "critical but stable".
 
 "The condition of the former prime minister is critical but stable 
              and changing minute by minute," admitted the consultant, also 
              speaking on the condition of anonymity.
 
 A team of nine senior consultants headed by Dr. Naresh Trehan is 
              keeping a close watch on the patient, he added.
