“My heart goes out to Shri K Sankaranarayanan, the former Governor of Maharashtra, Jharkhand, and Nagaland, who has died. Sankaranarayanan was a leader, a minister, and a governor. He had a lot of experience in administration and a strong sense of social responsibility. His death is a big loss for both Kerala and the country. May his soul reach Mukti “Governor Khan sent a tweet.
The chief minister said that Sankaranarayanan stayed true to the Congress party’s Nehruvian point of view in his message of condolence.
“He held to the Nehruvian point of view, which included secularism, when he talked about public issues without hatred or other sectarian considerations. He was the leader of the UDF for a long time, and he always had a positive attitude about the problems people in the state were having and how the state was going to grow “Asked by him: “What did he say?”
M B Rajesh, the speaker of the Kerala Assembly, said that the state had lost a senior and well-known political figure.
“Sankaranarayan’s death is a big loss for the Congress party. He was a great leader. He was like a teacher for me. For 16 years, he led the UDF. Sankaranarayanan, even when there was a major political crisis, handled everything with ease and was an example for everyone else “Said in his message:
Sankaranarayan was the strength of the Congress party when it had problems, says a senior party member.
People who work for the United Democratic Front (UDF) have many problems, but he says he can solve them with his experience and personal connection to all the leaders. E P Jayarajan, the leader of the LDF in Kerala, said that Sankaranarayanan was a lovely person in politics.
Sankaranarayan’s wife, Radha, died a long time before. His daughter, Anupama, is the only person left to see him alive after death.
