Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, who is currently leading the Bharat Jodo Yatra, wished for Heeraben's good health. 

"The love between a mother and a son is eternal and priceless. Modi ji, my love and support is with you in this difficult time. I hope your mother gets well soon," Rahul Gandhi tweeted. 

This comes just a day after Modi's brother Prahlad Modi, was injured in a car accident in Karnataka's Mysuru on Tuesday. Prahlad Modi was on his way to Bandipur with his family, IANS had reported. Prahlad Modi's son Mehul, daughter-in-law, and grandson Menath, were with him at the time of the accident. NDTV reported they were travelling to Bandipura, along with his convoy, in a Mercedes-Benz SUV when it hit a divider.

On Wednesday, the doctors said that they are "stable and fine"adding that the patients are likely to remain in the hospital until this evening or Thursday morning, when a decision on their discharge is likely to be taken by a team of doctors treating them in consultation with the family.
