Jyoti Basu - The left lion is no more with us
Veteran Marxist leader Jyoti Basu died in a Kolkata hospital last Sunday at the age of 95.
He had resigned from active politics in 2000 but continued to guide the communist movement in India till last day. He was a man of immense charisma, and one whose faith in the people was unflinching. He lived a full life, characterised by struggle and by successes in government that few other political leaders in India have been able to match.
We can truly say - THE END OF AN ERA....
