Initially, he was sent to Shwe Gon Daing Hospital and was later transferred to Rangoon General. Tin Oo reportedly lost consciousness for several hours but regained consciousness at about 8:40am on Thursday morning.

Doctors conducted a brain scan on the NLD patron, who has been a party stalwart since its founding in 1988.

In Mandalay on Thursday evening, NLD executive committee members organised a vigil at the city’s famed Mahamuni Pagoda, where they prayed for a speedy recovery for the party’s elder statesman.
