Patna: Bihar Rural Development and Information and Public Relations Minister Shravan Kumar has expressed grief over the death of Harishchandra Verma, a resident of Ram Raipur village in the Rohania Assembly constituency of Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, and paid tribute to his contributions to social service.
Kumar, who is also the leader of the Janata Dal (United) legislative party and the party’s organisational in-charge for Uttar Pradesh, offered condolences to the bereaved family and prayed for peace for the departed soul.
Recalling Verma’s contribution to society, Kumar said his life was dedicated to social causes, public service and ideological commitment. Verma was honoured with the Young President Award in 1990 in recognition of his social contribution and active engagement in public life.
According to Kumar, Verma was deeply influenced by the ideals of revolutionary social reformer Amar Shaheed Jagdev Babu and Ram Swarup Verma. Inspired by their thoughts, he remained actively involved in social initiatives and worked towards causes he believed in.
Kumar also recalled Verma’s contribution to several programmes organised by the JD(U) in 2016, which he helped conduct successfully. Verma was associated with various social organisations and remained committed to his responsibilities towards society.
Describing his death as an irreparable loss to the social and political spheres, Kumar said Verma’s service, ideals and commitment to public welfare would be remembered.
He prayed for strength and courage for Verma’s family, friends and well-wishers to cope with the loss.
