New Delhi: Congress’ lone Lok Sabha member from Maharashtra, Balu Dhanorkar, died at a non-public hospital within the National Capital Region Tuesday early morning, a celebration chief mentioned. Dhanorkar was 47 years previous and is survived by spouse Pratibha, an MLA, and two sons.
“He was admitted to a Nagpur-based hospital last week for the treatment of kidney stones. He was later shifted to New Delhi but he could not survive,” Congress chief Balasaheb Thorat mentioned.
Dhanorkar, the Lok Sabha member from Chandrapur, underwent remedy for kidney stones at a hospital in Nagpur on May 26 and was rushed to Medanta Hospital in Gurugram neighbouring Delhi on Sunday after some issues.
Dhanorkar’s mortal stays will probably be flown to his hometown, Warora, Tuesday afternoon. The final rites will probably be held on Wednesday morning.
Dhanorkar’s 80-year-old father Narayan Dhanorkar handed away in Nagpur on Saturday night after extended sickness. The MP couldn’t attend his father’s final rites on Sunday.
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor condoled the Congress MP’s demise.
“Sad to learn that our @INCIndia parliamentary colleague, Suresh Narayan Dhanorkar (MP from Chandrapur constituency in Maharashtra) passed away overnight, the second demise of a Congress MP during the 17th Lok Sabha. He was only 47. My condolences to his loved ones. Om Shanti,” Tharoor tweeted.

Dhanorkar began his political profession within the Balasaheb Thackeray-led Shiv Sena in Chandrapur district and received the meeting election in 2014. However, he was eager on contesting the Lok Sabha election from Chandrapur, which was historically contested by the BJP’s Hansraj Ahir.
Dhanorkar joined the Congress and defeated Ahir. His spouse received from the Warora-Bhadrawati meeting seat in 2019.
