The doctors, who were taking care of the animal, said that they were deeply saddened by his death and that they did everything possible to rehabilitate the horse.
The horse's left hind leg was amputated after being allegedly attacked by BJP lawmaker Ganesh Joshi in Dehradun in March.
The news of the animal recovering was doing rounds last month.
An emergency amputation was carried out after it became clear that the horse could die of gangrene from the wound.
