Gopinath Munde Dies of Heart Attack After Road Accident in Delhi
New Delhi: Senior BJP leader and union minister for rural development Gopinath Munde died this morning reportedly of a heart attack after a road accident in Delhi. He was 64.

At about 6.20 this morning, Mr Munde was on his way to the Delhi airport when an Indica car crashed into the minister's SX4 car at the the Prithviraj Road and Aurobindo Chowk cross-section in the heart of the capital, the police said. (BJP Shocked Over Gopinath Munde's Death)

Doctors quoted the minister's personal staff as saying that the Indica crashed into the car on the side that the minister was seated in the rear seat. Mr Munde, who seemed to have suffered only minor injuries, was in shock, his staff members said. He had asked for water, they said. (Munde's Demise a Major Loss, Tweets PM)

Mr Munde's driver and personal assistant were in the front and were unhurt. They rushed him to the trauma centre at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences. ('Munde Wanted Water, Asked Driver to Take Him to Hospital')

"There was no spontaneous breathing and no cardiac activity when he was brought to the hospital," a doctor said.

The doctors tried to revive the minister, but could not and pronounced him dead at 7.20 am.

Doctors have said Mr Munde was diabetic and suffered from hypertension.

The driver of the Indica, an employee of the Imperial Hotel, has been arrested, the police said, and charged with causing death due to negligence and rash driving. (Gopinath Munde's Hometown in Shock)
