Adieu Comrade Govind Uniyal

Comrade Govind Uniyal breathed his last on Dec 11 succumbing to severe cardiac arrest at the age of 75. He was not in the best of health for the last few years and was suffering from age related complications.

He has more than four decade long association with the communist party and served as member of Delhi State committee and incharge of CPIML Delhi state office for a very long time.

He was associated with the Sharaf faction of ML where his home served as an important centre during underground days of activism. Influenced by mass orientation and organisational work of CPIML, he joined the party in 1986.

He played a leading role in organising the workers in Ghaziabad and nearby areas. Due to his close association with the workers and intense activism many activists from CPI joined the party in Ghaziabad. That group mainly comprised young muslim youth.
