Recovering Dalai Lama to leave India hospital soon

NEW DELHI -- Tibetan leader the Dalai Lama is in a stable condition after surgery in India to remove gallstones and is likely to be discharged early next week, hospital officials and an aide said Saturday.

The Buddhist leader, 73, had the keyhole procedure in New Delhi on Friday, a day after he was hospitalized for medical tests after suffering abdominal pain.

“He is doing fine. He will be discharged maybe in a day or two,” said an official at the city’s Ganga Ram hospital.
