Krishna died at his residence early on Tuesday. The 92-year-old was the 16th chief minister of Karnataka from 1999 to 2004.

He is fondly remembered for his tenure as Karnataka's Chief Minister, particularly for his focus on infrastructural development. Shri SM Krishna Ji was also a prolific reader and thinker," he added.
