PM CONDOLES THE DEATH OF MALLIKARJUNAPPA
The Prime Minister
Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee has expressed deep grief at the demise
of Shri Gowder Mallikarjunappa, Member of Parliament from Karnataka.
In a message,
Shri Vajpayee said that Shri Mallikarjunappa was a popular social
and political worker and remained committed throughout his life
to the well-being of agriculturists and other weaker sections
of society.
Coming from a
humble and ordinary agricultural background, he through his deep
commitment of social service, dedication and hard work grew up
and occupied high position and was regarded as an eminent and
popular leader of BJP in Karnataka. In his death the country has
lost a popular parliamentarian who made significant contribution
particularly in the field of agriculture and rural industry.
