New Delhi, June 19 (IANS) Leader of Opposition in the Delhi Assembly Vijender Gupta, who was on an indefinite hunger strike, was on Tuesday shifted to GB Pant hospital due to failing health, said Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders.

"Vijender Gupta being taken to the hospital. He was on indefinite hunger strike with us for the last five days. May God bless (Delhi Chief Minister) Arvind Kejriwal's wisdom," West Delhi BJP MP Pravesh Singh Sahib Verma said in a tweet.
