May 19, 2026

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today expressed deep grief over the passing of the former Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Major General Bhuwan Chandra Khanduri (Retd.).

The Prime Minister noted that Major General Khanduri made invaluable contributions spanning from the armed forces to the political sphere, for which he will always be remembered. Shri Modi highlighted his unwavering dedication to the development of Uttarakhand during his tenure as Chief Minister, and described his stint as a Union Minister as truly inspiring. He further lauded his tireless efforts toward significantly improving connectivity across the nation.

The Prime Minister extended his heartfelt condolences to the family and supporters of the departed leader in this hour of grief.

The Prime Minister posted on X:

"उत्तराखंड के पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री मेजर जनरल भुवन चंद्र खण्डूडी (सेवानिवृत्त) जी के निधन से अत्यंत दुख हुआ है। सशस्त्र बलों से लेकर राजनीतिक जगत में उन्होंने बहुमूल्य योगदान दिया, जिसके लिए उन्हें सदैव याद किया जाएगा। उत्तराखंड के विकास के लिए वे हमेशा समर्पित रहे, जो मुख्यमंत्री के रूप में उनके कार्यकाल में भी साफ तौर पर दिखा। केंद्रीय मंत्री के रूप में भी उनका कार्यकाल हर किसी को प्रेरित करने वाला है। देशभर में कनेक्टिविटी की बेहतरी के लिए उन्होंने निरंतर अथक प्रयास किए। शोक की इस घड़ी में मेरी संवेदनाएं उनके परिजनों और समर्थकों के साथ हैं। ओम शांति!"
