BJP General Secretary Mr.Pramod Mahajan passed away this afternoon at Mumbai's Hinduja Hospital following multiple organ failure.Mr Pramod Mahajan,56, breathed his last at 4:10 pm ,while trying to win a lossing battle at Hinduja Hospital after his condition took a turn for the worst.Mahajan's health worsened due to acute respiratory disorder and he suffered multiple organ failure.
Mr Pramod Mahajan,56, who was shot and grievously wounded by his youngest brother Pravin on the morning of 22 April after an argument at the BJP leader's apartment in Mumbai's upscale Worli area, had remained in a critical condition ever since the attack 11 days ago.Mr.Mahajan had undergone three surgeries in the last 11 days.All vital organs of Mahajan were on artificial support system since day one.He was constantly on ventilator and dialysis support.Mahajan still had three bullets embedded in his body and they seemed to have caused extensive damage to his vital organs.
Mr.Pramod Mahajan had seemingly showed some improvement in the past few days at the P.D. Hinduja Hospital, but his condition deteriorated suddenly on Tuesday night,which became more and more difficult to contain for the doctors attending on him.In a last-ditch effort, the doctors at Hinduja hospital had conducted a Bronchoscopy on 56-year-old Mahajan earlier on Tuesday to identify the cause of his airway problems such as bleeding, difficulty in breathing or inflammation from other lung diseases.
Mr.Mahajan was BJP General Secretary and an important second generation leader of the party. An astute politician, he was the Information Technology minister during NDA rule.Former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee had even stated tat he was the Laxman of BJP ,with Mr.Advani being the Ram.He was considered a master strategist in the BJP and outside.His loss is a huge blow to BJP.
I am deeply sad and my heartly condolences go out to Mr Pramod Mahajan's family ......and may His soul Rest in Peace......
