The body of former external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj will be cremated at the Lodhi Crematorium with full state honours on Wednesday (Aug 7).
Prior to that, the body of the senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader will be kept at the part’s headquarters for three hours.
BJP working president Jagat Prakash Nadda said party leaders and activists will be allowed to pay their last respects to Sushma, reports NDTV.
Sushma Swaraj has passed away at the age of 67 after suffering a heart attack in All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi late on Tuesday.
A pall of gloom descended at the hospital as the news of her death spread, leaving everyone in a state of disbelief.
The senior BJP leader, who underwent a kidney transplant in 2016, had opted out of contesting in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections citing ill health.
