New Delhi: Senior BJP leader and Rajya Sabha MP, Sushil Modi, died on Monday at Delhi’s All-India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS). He was 72. The former Bihar deputy chief minister was battling cancer and was admitted in the intensive care unit of AIIMS for the last one month.
Earlier, he had opted out of the ongoing Lok Sabha Elections also on account of his health. The absence of Modi’s name from the list of BJP candidates for the Rajya Sabha elections in February had sparked widespread speculations.
In his last tweet, Modi had informed that he has been battling cancer for last 6 month and won’t be able to do anything in the Lok Sabha elections.
“I have been battling cancer for the last 6 months. Now I feel that the time has come to tell people. I will not be able to do anything in the Lok Sabha elections. I have told everything to the PM. Always grateful and always dedicated to the country, Bihar and the party,” Modi posted on X.
पिछले 6 माह से कैंसर से संघर्ष कर रहा हूँ । अब लगा कि लोगों को बताने का समय आ गया है । लोक सभा चुनाव में कुछ कर नहीं पाऊँगा ।
PM को सब कुछ बता दिया है ।
