FORMER Union Home Minister Shivraj Patil Chakurkar passed away at 90 on Friday morning at his native Latur in Maharashtra after a brief illness.

He was “a man of high gentlemanly calibre,” admired for his vast reading, meticulous study, and articulate presentations. He had an exceptional grasp of constitutional matters as a law student and he was a “much-respected parliamentarian of his time” for his erudite speeches.
