Hindu Rights Action Force chairperson, P Waythamoorthy's condition is worsening as he enters the 19th day of his hunger Viratham or fast, according to a statement from the organisation .
There are serious deterioration of his body functions, and Hindraf leaders are questioning the lack of concern over this from Pakatan Rakyat or BN leaders.
Waythamoorthy appears very weak and disorientated, and his blood pressure is erratic, the statement added.
A team of doctors, have been making periodic visits to oversee his general well being. Occasionally intravenous drips are given, it said.
It added that the doctors have recommended that Waythamoorthy (inwhite in photo) stop his fast immediately and seek proper medical attention at a hospital to prevent any further damage to his internal organs.
"The political leaders of both the BN and Pakatan Rakyat seem not to be worried about any adverse outcome for Waythamoorthy. They have it within them to review the proposals in the blueprint which are the focus of the Hunger Viratham and to accommodate them into national policy.
"The proposals in the blueprint are entirely justifiable, but these leaders look askance. Hindraf believes this is the inevitable fate of the minorities in the country. Their rights and interests will forever be compromised. When they speak up, they will be beaten down as being sectarian or racist."
Despite all this, Waythamoorthy is continuing with his fast .
Accept Hindraf blueprint, win support
The first coalition either BN or Pakatan that gives an undertaking to implement the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) blueprint would get the support from the movement in the coming election.
Hindraf adviser N Ganesan denied that the movement is turning its back on Pakatan by meeting with prime ministerNajib Abdul Razak on Monday.
He said it is up to Pakatan to embrace Hindraf's demands, and if the opposition coalition decides so then their support will be for it.
"Our support has always been with Pakatan but we give our undertaking that whichever coalition vouches to implement the Hindraf blueprint would get our support," he said.
Ganesan was asked to comment on its Monday meeting with Najib and whether it is showing its supporters that they they should back BN and Umno.

He added the priority on the implementation of the blueprint is towards having either Pakatan or BN give an undertaking on focusing on issues related to Tamil schools where 370 of it are in a dilapidated state since independence.
"We are articulating on having permanent solutions for the Indian community especially those staying in the estates.

Pakatan or BN need to address the issues facing Tamil schools which are in a dilapidated state with some classroom operating in cargo containers, worn out buildings and lacking amenities, " said Ganesan(right). The worsening conditions in Tamil schools, Ganesan pointed out had resulted in escalating social problems for the Indian community.
"This matter is of urgent importance and we calculated that RM1 billion is needed to help all the Tamil schools meaning RM5 million in five years.
"This is to give the Indian children equal access to quality education and not left behind in the social structure compared to others," he said.
