Lakshman Singh Bisht (popularly known as Lucky Bisht)[2][3][4][5] is an Indian former spy, sniper and National Security Guard commando.[6] He served as a personal bodyguard to politicians such as Tarun Gogoi, L. K. Advani, Chandrababu Naidu, Rajnath Singh and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.[6][7]

Early life and military career

Bisht was born in Gangolihat, Pithoragarh district, Uttarakhand. His grandfather died in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971.[8] He completed his early education at Kendriya Vidhyalaya No. 5, Mansarovar, Jaipur,[9] and eventually joined the special forces.

Bisht claims he served as a bodyguard for Narendra Modi during his tenure as chief minister of Gujarat.[10] In 2022, Bisht was interviewed by Hussain Zaidi about his life,[11] career and experiences as an intelligence operative for the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW).[12] Bisht claims that he was part of the security detail for US President Barack Obama during his visit to India on 8 November 2010.[13][14] He has also claimed to have worked with various government security agencies, including the National Security Guard, Indian Army, Research and Analysis Wing, Special Forces and Assam Rifles.[15][16][17][18][19]

Prediction

In December 2024, during an interview with Navbharat Times, Bisht asserted that the government of Nepal under K. P. Sharma Oli would collapse.[20] On 10 September 2025, it fell during the Nepalese Gen Z protests. Several media outlets reported on this prediction, including the Economic Times, Times Now, DNA, ABP News, and Aaj Tak.

Books about Bisht

A book on his life, titled R.A.W. Hitman: The Real Story of Agent Lima,[21] was published by Simon & Schuster on 4 July 2023 in the United States[22] and on 6 July 2023 in India.[23] It was written by Hussain Zaidi.[24][25]

Bisht authored the book R.A.W Hitman 2: The Assassinations, which was published by Simon & Schuster on December 3, 2024.[26][27]

Murder case

Bisht faced accusations for the assassination of Raju Pargai and Amit Arya.[28][29] On 5 September 2011, the Uttarakhand Police charged him with a double murder charge.[30][31] He spent over three years in jail, being transferred to 11 different facilities during this period.[32] He was released on 11 March 2015.[33][34] Ultimately, the Nainital district court acquitted him on 6 March 2018 due to a lack of evidence.[35][36] Bisht rejoined the Special Forces in 2018 and retired in 2019 before venturing into Bollywood later that year.[37][38]

Filmography

Bisht made his entry into the Indian film industry as a producer in 2019, and had a cameo in the web series Sena: Guardians of the Nation, which was released on Amazon.[39][40]
