However, in the late evening, Dalmiya suffered a massive gastro-intestinal bleeding and in spite of all the efforts of doctors he succumbed to the bleeding at 8.45 pm," attending doctor Anil Mishra said.
The veteran cricket administrator, 75, was admitted to the B.M. Birla Hospital on Thursday night and shifted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). He also underwent a coronary angiography with his condition remaining stable for close to three days.
