New Delhi: For the first time, one of the separated conjoined twins Jaga came out of the AIIMS after surgery and took a walk along with his mother around India Gate here.

While the discharge of twin brothers Jaga and Kalia from the AIIMS in New Delhi is yet uncertain, Jaga was spotted with his mother at India Gate and enjoying the day.

Reports said that the health condition of Kalia is improving.

Worth mentioning, both Jaga and Kalia are undergoing treatment at country's premier medical institution in New Delhi following their successful surgery.

In a recent report to the National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST), the AIIMS said that Jaga and Kalia are clinically fit for discharge from the hospital.

However, the discharge date is yet to be finalised.

The craniopagus conjoined twins hailing from Milipada village in Kandhamal district were separated by a team of doctors after a 21-hour-long surgery in October last year. The historic surgery had created a new chapter in Indian medical science.
