PRAKASH KARAT’S CONDOLENCES

 

The following is the text of the condolence message sent by Prakash Karat, general secretary of the CPI(M) to Biman Basu, secretary of the West Bengal state committee on July 18, 2013

 

I am deeply saddened to hear the news of the passing away of our beloved Comrade, Samar Mukherjee, who was the oldest member of the Party in the country.

 

Comrade Samar Mukherjee was a builder of the Party and the working class movement. He set an example on how to serve the people.

 

Samarda will always be remembered for his sterling qualities, his complete dedication to the Party, his simplicity and selflessness.

 

We should all emulate his example. I pay my homage to his memory.
