Maha Governor Bais condoles the demise of Manohar Joshi

Maharashtra Governor Ramesh Bais has expressed grief over the demise of former Chief Minister of Maharashtra and former Lok Sabha Speaker Manohar Joshi.

In a condolence message, Governor Bais wrote;

“Shri Manohar Joshi was one of the most respected political leaders in Maharashtra. A skilled organizer, outstanding parliamentarian, excellent orator, fiery opposition leader and respected Lok Sabha Speaker, Shri Joshi left his indelible mark while discharging every role. Realizing the importance of skill education long ago, he created centres for imparting technical and skill education which helped thousands of young women and men to secure jobs. Joshi Ji was a soft-spoken and erudite parliamentarian who was respected by politicians cutting across the political spectrum. In his demise, Maharashtra has lost a man of high principles and values. I had the good fortune of knowing Shri Joshi intimately when he was the Speaker of the Lok Sabha. My heartfelt condolences to his family.”
