Delhi Assembly adjourned after mourning Karunanidhi’s death

New Delhi: The Delhi Assembly was adjourned for the day on Wednesday after mourning the death of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi.

All the MLAs paid their tributes to the DMK leader who passed away on Tuesday evening at the age of 94 years.

In his speech, BJP MLA and Leader of Opposition Vijender Gupta said the absence of the veteran politician will be felt.

Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia paid tributes on behalf of the Delhi Government.

“Karunanidhi considered his conscience as his God. This is a very strong message at a time when the society is being divided in the name of religion,” Sisodia said.

The House also paid tributes to four Army personnel killed in Jammu and Kashmir’s Gurez in a gunfight with terrorists.
