"I have been successfully operated for hernia here in Mumbai due to timely detection," Gehlot said in a tweet. He stressed that being aware and vigilant was the key to all curable diseases, including swine flu, which, he said, was 100 per cent curable.

The disease claimed more than 70 lives in Rajasthan recently. "I appeal to all the people to be aware of their health and get timely treatment," he urged.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished good health to the senior Congress leader. "Happy to know about the successful operation. Best wishes for your good health Ashok Ji," Modi said in a tweet.
