RS bids adieu to three retiring members

NEW DELHI: The Rajya Sabha today bid adieu to three members whose term comes to an end with the close of the Monsoon session tomorrow.

These members are Sitaram Yechury of the CPI(M), D Bandyopadhyay of the Trinamool Congress and Dilip Pandya of the BJP.

While nine members are retiring after the session, six of them will be back as they have been re-elected.

Deputy Chairman Kurien, while thanking the retiring members for their invaluable contribution, said they should forgive and forget if he had been harsh with them.

He termed Yechury as an excellent parliamentarian and said the nation will be benefited from his contribution.

Yechury has set high standards of political behaviour, he said. (AGENCIES)
