PM 'back to work'

By Our Special Correspondent

NEW DELHI, APRIL 20. The Prime Minister, Mr. Atal Behari Vajpayee, is reasonably well and attended to his office work today.

On Wednesday, Mr. Vajpayee could not take part in the debate in the Lok Sabha as he was feeling unwell; and, predictably, the officials were keen on downplaying his illness. Today, the same officials were keen on playing up ``the PM is back to work'' theme.

Mr. Vajpayeetoday attended a meeting in the Ministry of Defence, received foreign visitors and his Cabinet colleagues, and cleared a small portion of the never diminishing pile of files; and, he is reported to be looking forward to presiding over the Cabinet meeting on Saturday.
