Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) working president JP Nadda mourned sudden demise of former finance minister Arun Jaitely. Nadda said, ‘Whole country is mourning the demise of Arun Jaitely. We all know that his behaviour was calm and composed. He always posed as a ‘sankatmochan’ whenever the party (BJP) faced and trouble or crisis. He always worked for the nation. It is due to his soft nature that he has numerous friends in different political parties who are mournful today.’

JP Nadda further said, ‘We are here in AIIMS and will take his body to his residence, Kailash Colony. His body will be taken for ‘Antim Darshan’ to BJP office at 10 am tomorrow.’
