‘#10Yearchallenge: Former Indian PM Manmohan Singh completes a decade after successful heart surgery. He is the unexpected new entrant on the #10Yearchallenge on social media.’
Five bypasses were performed on Singh, who had already undergone a bypass surgery earlier in 1990, and later a stenting procedure in 2004. Recalling the day when Singh was operated upon, Panda, who hails from Odisha, said: "At the time of his procedure, Dr. Singh appeared extremely calm.
