Rumours about my health is baseless. I am healthy and fine. I have come to Doctor for a regular health check-up so there is no need to worry.

Siddaramaiah, 71, had rejected reports about his health as 'baseless' on Wednesday morning.
"Rumours about my health is baseless. I am healthy and fine. I have come to doctor for a regular health check-up and so there is no need to worry," he tweeted.
Siddaramaiah quit as Congress legislature party leader on Monday after the party posted a poor show, winning only two seats, as against the 12 it had held of the 15 which went to the polls on December 5.
