On the first day of the Budget Session of Parliament, 15 obituary notices were read in the Rajya Sabha by Chairman Venkaiah Naidu- three of them for sitting members, 11 former members and for renowned playback singer S.P. Balasubrahmanyam.
Reading out an obituary reference to Ram Vilas Paswan, who passed away on October 8 and was a sitting member, Mr. Naidu said Paswan was a champion of the poor, downtrodden and dispossessed. “Soft-spoken and dignified in his conduct, he was known for his approachability and extending assistance to the needy and vulnerable, irrespective of their affiliations.” In his passing away, the country has lost an able administrator, a distinguished parliamentarian.
