NEW DELHI - Arun Jaitley, the former Indian finance minister and one of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s closest associates, died in hospital on Saturday, nearly two weeks after he was admitted following breathing difficulties, officials said.
Jaitley, 66, a senior leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party , stepped down as finance minister in January due to ill health, just months before elections that returned Modi’s Hindu nationalists to power. The BJP lost another veteran party leader and former minister of external affairs when Sushma Swaraj died after a cardiac arrest earlier this month.
Arun Jaitely ji contributed immensely to the fundamentals of the Indian economy as the Finance Minister... India will forever remember him... May his soul RIP...
BJP4India A true, loyal, witty and committed statesman with unswerved dedication to BJP in serving India under the leadership of PM Modi. He will be missed by the entire nation.

Sushma Swaraj & Jaitley dying so young? What going on in New Delhi? Pollution & lousy health care? Shame! I came from Andhra Pradesh to U.S in 1966. I am still here & I am 80 years old. Take care Mr. Modi! India needs you!
