A 68-year-old legislator in Assam succumbed to post Covid complications on Wednesday morning.
Majendra Narzary, a Bodoland People’s Front (BPF) politician, had represented the Gossaigaon assembly constituency since 2006. The BPF, an ally of the Congress in the recently held state elections, had won four seats.
Health officials said that Narzary had tested positive for Covid earlier this month. He tested negative a few days back but was put on ventalitor in the ICU at the Guwahati Medical and Hospital (GMCH) when his post-covid complications intensified.
“Although he won the fight against Covid, unfortunately succumbed to comorbidity issues,” said Assam Health Minister Keshab Mahanta.
