Bhuvan Chandra Khanduri, the former chief minister of Uttarakhand and a veteran BJP leader, dies at 91. Both reports say he passes away on Tuesday at a private hospital in the city after a prolonged illness. Khanduri is remembered for his dual career in public life and military service. News18 notes his long-standing contributions as a former Uttarakhand CM and highlights his background as an army veteran. NDTV also reports that he was a veteran BJP figure and that his death follows a period of illness. Following his death, President Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi express condolences, with both sources indicating that his political and military service is acknowledged in their remarks. The reports agree on the basic timeline—death on Tuesday, age 91, hospital death after illness—and on the fact of condolence messages from top constitutional and government leaders.
