New Delhi, Sept 8 (IBNS): PM Narendra Modi has condoled the demise of Ram Jethmalani, the legal veteran and a former union minister.

“In the passing away of Shri Ram Jethmalani Ji, India has lost an exceptional lawyer and iconic public figure who made rich contributions both in the Court and Parliament," Modi said.

"He was witty, courageous and never shied away from boldly expressing himself on any subject," Modi said.

"One of the best aspects of Shri Ram Jethmalani Ji was the ability to speak his mind. And, he did so without any fear. During the dark days of the Emergency, his fortitude and fight for public liberties will be remembered. Helping the needy was an integral part of his persona," he said.

"I consider myself fortunate to have got numerous opportunities to interact with Shri Ram Jethmalani Ji. In these sad moments, my condolences to his family, friends and many admirers. He may not be here but his pioneering work will live on! Om Shanti,” the Prime Minister said.
