Arun Jaitley's Presence In Parliament Will Be Remembered: Rahul Gandhi

As Arun Jaitley, former Finance Minister and BJP veteran who died on Saturday, was cremated with state honours in Delhi this afternoon, Rahul Gandhi in a letter has said Mr Jaitley's presence will be remembered in Parliament.





In a condolence message to Mr Jaitley's wife Sangeeta, Mr Gandhi said that in his illustrious career spanning over four decades, Mr Jaitley left his mark on politics.





"Although his voice will no longer reverberate within the hallowed portals of Parliament, we will remember his presence," he said in the letter.





"Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. I wish you peace and strength during this difficult time," Mr Gandhi said.
