Must read

Agartala, Sept 13: Former chief minister of Tripura, Manik Sarkar, on Thursday said that party stalwart Harkishan Singh Surjeet inspired and guided Sitaram Yechury to maintain a close relationship with the like-minded and secular parties to strengthen the democratic movement against the fascist and communal forces.

Sarkar is also the politburo member, who was the chief minister of Tripura for a record 20 years (1998 to 2018).

Sarkar said that Yechury until recently, before his illness, efficiently maintained an effective and positive association with all the non-Left secular and democratic-minded parties.

The CPI-M General Secretary after battling a severe lung infection at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi died on Thursday afternoon at the age of 72 years.

“In our party, Surjeet first initiated a rapport to maintain a relation with the like-minded and secular parties and he inspired and guided Yechury in this regard. Yechury performed the task very efficiently till he was physically fit,” the 75-year-old Left leader said in a video message.

He said not only in India, Yechury maintained very close relations with the Left parties of many countries. “He conducted many joint international events with the Left parties of various countries.”

The party flags would fly at half-mast in all the CPI-M party offices in Tripura for the next seven days marking respect to the deceased leader.
