Former Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal passed away on Tuesday at a private hospital in Mohali. He was 95.
The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) patriarch was admitted to the Fortis Hospital in Mohali more than a week ago after he complained of uneasiness while breathing.
Badal is survived by a son and SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal and daughter Parneet Kaur, who is married to former cabinet minister Adeish Partap Singh Kairon.
The five-time former chief minister of Punjab was hospitalised in June last year also following complaints related to gastritis and bronchial asthma.
Badal tested positive for COVID-19 in January last year and was admitted to a hospital in Ludhiana.
In February 2022, he was taken to a private hospital in Mohali for a post-Covid health examination during which he also underwent cardiac and pulmonary check-ups.
Home Minister Amit Shah and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh had recently inquired about the well-being of Badal.
