Indian Coast Guard Director General Rakesh Pal died at a government hospital in Chennai following a "cardiac arrest", defence sources in Chennai said.

Pal, who was to attend an ICG event along with Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, was admitted to the state-run Rajiv Gandhi General Hospital earlier in the day after he complained of uneasiness, they said, without divulging details.

Singh, who also attended a Tamil Nadu government event to release a commemorative coin on late DMK president M Karunanidhi's birth centenary, rushed to the hospital to pay his respects on hearing of Pal's demise. -- PTI
