NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday condoled the demise of former Union law minister Shanti Bhushan and said that the veteran lawyer will be remembered for his contribution to the legal field.
"Shri Shanti Bhushan Ji will be remembered for his contribution to the legal field and passion towards speaking for the underprivileged. Pained by his passing away. Condolences to his family. Om Shanti," PM Modi said in a tweet.
Bhushan passed away on Tuesday aged 97 after a brief illness.
He had also actively participated in the agitation led by social activist Anna Hazare.
Bhushan was one of the founding members of the Aam Aadmi Party. However, he fell out with AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal within two years of the formation of the party.
