Junior Railways Minister Suresh Angadi has died on September 23, nearly two weeks after he tested positive for coronavirus infection. He was admitted to AIIMS in Delhi after his condition worsened. He was the first Union Minister and the fourth MP to die due to COVID-19 infection.
Following his swab samples returning positive for COVID-19 on September 11, the MP from Belagavi had requested all those who came in close contact with him in the last few days to monitor their health and get tested in case of any symptoms.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to Twitter to offer condolences. He said that Angadi “was a dedicated MP and effective Minister, admired across the spectrum. His demise is saddening.”
Railway Minister Piyush Goyal said on the micro-blogging website, “Deeply anguished at the unfortunate demise of Suresh Angadi ji. He was like my brother. Words fall short to describe his commitment & dedication towards the people. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends in this hour of need. Om Shanti”.
President Ram Nath Kovind also expressed his shock at the untimely demise of the Minister.
