Punjab: Last farewell to former minister

Punjab: Senior BJP leader and former minister Gurjant Singh Brar (91) was cremated with full honours at his native village Chak 5-LNP near Sri Ganganagar this afternoon. Brar, a four-time MLA, died last evening. His grandson Gurvir Singh Brar is the BJP MLA from Sadulshahar. A large number of BJP leaders, former and present MPs and MLAs, Zila Parishad directors, Pradhans and Directors of Panchayat Samitis were present on the occasion. Thousands of people paid their last respects to the late leader, who had emerged as the prominent Sikh face of the BJP in Rajasthan.

In a message, Union Minister Arjun Meghwal said the region lost a tall leader who had strengthened the BJP besides rendering extensive service to farmers. Brar had said some time back that he was made a minister by the then Chief Minister Bhairon Singh Shekhawat on the recommendation of former Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal. Those who gave a final farewell to Brar included former MP Nihal Chand, MLAs Ravinder Singh Bhati and Rupinder Singh Kunnar “Ruby”, former CPM MLA Hetram Beniwal, district Congress president Ankur Miglani, district BJP president Sharanpal Singh, vice-president Ratan Ganeshgarhia, Abohar MLA Sandeep Jakhar, former Punjab minister Surjit Jyani, Rajasthan Mati Kala Board chairman Prahlad Rai Tak, former Congress MLA from Sadulshahar Jagdish Chandra Jangid and former BJP MLA from Suratgarh Ashok.
