Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday expressed grief over the demise of Congress veteran and Gandhi family loyalist Motilal Vora at a private hospital here earlier in the day.
In a tweet, the Prime Minister said: “Shri Motilal Vora Ji was among the senior-most Congress leaders who had vast administrative and organizational experience in a political career that spanned decades. Saddened by his demise. Condolences to his family and well-wishers. Om Shanti.”
Vora passed away at the age of 93, a day after celebrating his birthday.
Vora began his political career as a Congress councilor, and became a Chief Minister, Union Minister, Governor, and Congress Treasurer during his political career. His Rajya Sabha term ended in March this year.
