MUMBAI: Indian Hindu extremist group Shiv Sena's chief Bal Thackeray, who is ailing for sometime, has died on Saturday aged 86, one of his doctors said.
Thackeray, the founder and president of the hardline Shiv Sena (Tiger Army) party rose to prominence with his fiery rhetoric against immigration in India's richest city.
Thackeray, who was admitted into a central Mumbai hospital in July, died of cardio-respiratory arrest at his home, the doctor, Jalil Parker, said.
