SALEEM PEERZADA

AMN / NEW DELHI

Mr Saleem Peerzada popularly knows as Lovy peerzada passed away due to cardiac attack in New Delhi today. He was great thinker,statesman and chairman of Parcham party.

According to family sources he breathed his last at Apoloo Hospital Delhi. He suffered a stroke on December 11th and was admitted at JNMC, later he was transferred to Ganga Ram Hospital Delhi and later sent to Apollo.

He could not be operated as his condition had deteriorated,understandably due to time lapse during transfers between hospitals. He had a successful open heart surgery 2 years ago.

A frank and bold he was,as a young AMU student and a Politican until he wrote his last words yesterday on face book.He was a prolific writer and an excellent orator.

It is a legacy that spans 40 years, including the stand-off with administration,corruption and the resistance against the nepotism,religious fanaticism and communalism. He was a Politician with ideals with unparalleled knowledge of history and mesmerizing vocabulary oratory skills.

His demise has created a vacuum in the “ ideological politics”,which may not be
replaced.

May his soul rest in peace
