New Delhi/IBNS: Veteran journalist and managing editor of the Financial Express Sunil Jain passed away on Saturday due to post-Covid complications.

Jain was admitted to Delhi's AIIMS on May 3 following his Covid infection.

His sister Sandhya Jain tweeted: "We lost my brother Sunil Jain this evening to Covid+its complications. Doctors+staff at AIIMS battled heroically, but the demon was too powerful. May Tirthankaras guide his onward journey; deep gratitude to all who stood by us in these darkest day."

Prime Minister Narendra Modi also condoled Sunil Jain's death.

In a tweet, he wrote: "You left us too soon, Sunil Jain. I will miss reading your columns and hearing your frank as well as insightful views on diverse matters. You leave behind an inspiring range of work. Journalism is poorer today, with your sad demise. Condolences to family and friends. Om Shanti."
