PM condoles demise of former union minister Shri Ram Jethmalani

New Delhi, Sept 8 (Punjab Post Bureau) – The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has condoled the demise of Shri Ram Jethmalani, the legal veteran and a former union minister.

“In the passing away of Shri Ram Jethmalani Ji, India has lost an exceptional lawyer and iconic public figure who made rich contributions both in the Court and Parliament. He was witty, courageous and never shied away from boldly expressing himself on any subject.

One of the best aspects of Shri Ram Jethmalani was the ability to speak his mind. And, he did so without any fear. During the dark days of the Emergency, his fortitude and fight for public liberties will be remembered. Helping the needy was an integral part of his persona.

I consider myself fortunate to have got numerous opportunities to interact with Shri Ram Jethmalani Ji. In these sad moments, my condolences to his family, friends and many admirers. He may not be here but his pioneering work will live on! Om Shanti”, the Prime Minister said.
