New Delhi, Mar 28 (IBNS): President Pranab Mukherjee on Saturday condoled the death of Congress leader P. R. Kyndiah.

Mukherjee said the death of the Congress leader left the nation with the loss of an eminent personality.

In his condolence message to his son, Waibha Kyndiah, the President said, “I am deeply saddened to learn about the passing away of Shri P. R. Kyndiah, a friend and colleague of long years."

"A distinguished Parliamentarian and veteran Congress leader, Shri Kyndiah served the nation in various capacities during his long public life. As Union Minister in-charge of Tribal Affairs and Development of North Eastern Region (DONER), he initiated a number of measures for the progress and development of the people of the North East. He also made immense contribution as Member of Legislative Assembly of Meghalaya, Minister and acting Chief Minister of Meghalaya and Governor of Mizoram. In his death, the nation has lost an eminent personality," Mukherjee said.
