Sir,
Refer news item ‘Sushma Swaraj passes away’ DE Aug 7, 2019.
In the death of Sushma Swaraj,India has lost a great leader with remarkable qualities of head and heart. Throughout her political career, she has remained far from any controversy, and has earned appreciation both from foes and friends equally. While handling the important Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ahe gave it a humane touch by redressing the issues of people personally. Besides, as a foreign minister she pleaded the cause of the country forcefully at UN, and with the world leaders. She was lauded for speech at UN where she exposed Pakistan for her involvement in terrorism.
Her popularity can be gauged from the fact that leaders cutting party lives paid a tearful tribute to her. Every leaders praised her role as an opposition leader or a minister. India will miss her forever.
