SAD DEMISE OF A DEDICATED CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER

SAD DEMISE OF A DEDICATED CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER
This is to convey my heartfelt condolences to the near and dear of Sri Yashpal Chibbar, the indefatigable human rights activist and the dedicated General Secretary of the People's Union for Civil Liberties on 2 December 2008 at Delhi. It will not be an exaggeration to state that Sri Chibbar worked heart and soul for the cause of the common man in India, for the protection and promotion of civil and human rights to all sections of people, especially the downtrodden and sacrificed himself like a bright candle dispensing light to one and all. No words are adequate to applaud his stupendous work for the cause of socialism, democracy and human rights. Let us all vow to follow his path and his resolve for upholding and promoting human rights in India and the world. - I.MALLIKARJUNA SHARMA, Advocate and Convener, MARXIST STUDY FORUM and Editor, LAW ANIMATED WORLD, a world law fortnightly published from Hyderabad, H.
