Dr. Arun, 57, a veteran member of the CPI(ML) who was a practicing doctor in Delhi, suddenly passed away in a private nursing home. He was being treated there for fever and pain, and it seems that a severe brain haemorrhage failed to be detected till it was too late. He was diabetic and also suffering from hypertension.

Dr. Arun was associated with the party since the 1980s. He always remained closely concerned with the Partys work in Delhi. He was always eager to extend all sorts of medical help to comrades.

He got his medical degree from BHU. He used to go from Delhi to his native village in Gaya district for at least a fortnight in a year to offer free medical aid to his fellow villagers. Since he was a gynaecologist, this free medical aid was invaluable to rural women, since there is a complete absence of skilled gynaecological care in rural Bihar and India.

The entire party is grieved by Dr. Aruns untimely demise and expresses deep condolences to his bereaved wife and son.

Long Live Dr. Arun!
