According to Dr. Chetan R Mundada, chief pediatric intensivist, Sritej is semi-conscious, tolerating feeds, and showing slight neurological improvement.
While he briefly came off ventilator support, it had to be reinstated. The child is hemodynamically stable but still requires close monitoring and intensive care.

Sritej was brought to the hospital in a semi-conscious state after CPR administered at the scene by police and bystanders revived him. Since then, he has shown some signs of progress, such as trying to move and open his eyes.
However, intermittent fever and dependency on minimal ventilator settings indicate his road to recovery will take time.
