Chaudhary died on Saturday after suffering a cardiac arrest during the Bharat Jodo Yatra in Jalandhar’s Phillaur, following which the march was halted for 24 hours.
A two-time MP, Chaudhary (76) was walking with Rahul Gandhi during the yatra when he fainted. He was rushed to a private hospital in Phagwara in an ambulance where he was declared brought dead.
Chaudhary was cremated with full state honours on Sunday at his native Dhaliwal village in Jalandhar district.
