Ravish Tiwari, National Political Editor and Chief of National Bureau of The Indian Express, whose work blended scholarship with journalistic rigour to explain change in politics and society, died Saturday morning.
He had been suffering from cancer since June 2020. He was 40 and is survived by his wife, his parents and a brother.
Condoling his death, Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted, “Destiny has taken away Ravish Tiwari too soon. A bright career in the media world comes to an end. I would enjoy reading his reports and would also periodically interact with him. He was insightful and humble. Condolences to his family and many friends. Om Shanti.”
