As condolence messages continued to pour in over the sudden demise of Congress MP from Jalandhar Santokh Singh Chaudhary, his fellow parliamentarian and former Union minister Manish Tewari on Saturday said they were together in the Bharat Jodo Yatra in the morning and had even acknowledged each other before getting swept away in the crowd.
“@SSChaudharyMP and I were together in Yatra in the morning. He was wearing a black track top. Our eyes locked and we acknowledged each other & after a while we got swept away in the crowds,” Tewari wrote on Twitter.
“He was a noble soul & a respected colleague. RIP Choudhary Sahib as everyone called him.” Santokh Singh Chaudhary passed away from a sudden cardiac arrest during the Bharat Jodo Yatra on Saturday morning. He was 76.
