New Delhi, Sept 21 (IBNS): President of India Pranab Mukherjee has condoled the passing away of former ICC president and current chief of the BCCI Jagmohan Dalmiya.
In his message, the President has said, “I am sad to learn about the passing away of Shri Jagmohan Dalmiya. Shri Dalmiya was a visionary and well known leader of Indian cricket.
