Samajwadi Party MLA from Ghosi Assembly constituency in Mau district, Sudhakar Singh, passed away at a private hospital here early Thursday, his family said. He was 67.

Singh complained of breathing difficulty after landing at the Varanasi airport from Delhi on Tuesday. He was first admitted to a hospital in Varanasi and then to Lucknow for further treatment, his son Sujeet Singh told PTI.
