Oommen Chandy, who represents Puthuppally constituency in the state Assembly since 1970, was chief minister of Kerala twice.
Senior Congress leader and former Kerala chief minister Oommen Chandy was on Sunday airlifted to a private hospital in Bengaluru, party sources said.
Mr Chandy had been admitted to a private hospital in nearby Neyyattinkara for treatment after he was infected with pneumonia.
The Congress veteran, who was taken out of the hospital in a wheelchair, thanked the doctors and staff of the hospital and said there was no basis for the concerns regarding the treatment given to him. "There is no basis for the controversy related to my treatment," Mr Chandy said in a feeble voice to the media.
His wife, two daughters and son, Chandy Oommen, accompanied the senior leader to Bengaluru.
