Unrepentant Marxist-Author and editor

The CPIM lost one of its staunchest pillars today as Sitaram Yechury, the party's three-time general secretary, strategist, think tank, author and editor of its mouthpiece People's Democracy for over two decades, died at the age of 72 today. The veteran leader had been ailing for some time and was admitted at Delhi's All-India Institute of Medical Sciences or AIIMS. He was being treated for acute respiratory tract infection and was on respiratory support.
