Several BJP leaders, Union ministers and the RSS on Friday condoled the death of party veteran and former Rajya Sabha MP Ravindra Kishore Sinha, aged 75, recalling his contributions to the organisation, journalism, industry and social service.
Along with giving SIS global recognition from Patna, he also played an important role in job creation in the security sector. “I shared a close bond with him. His journey as an entrepreneur, from zero to success in his industry, is remarkable.
Sinha died at his residence in Noida after a brief illness, family sources said. BJP national president Nitin Nabin paid floral tributes to Sinha at AIIMS and said his contribution to the BJP since its formative years, as well as his role in giving SIS a global identity and generating employment in the security sector, would always be remembered. The BJP president said, “His contribution to the expansion of the organisation since the founding days of the BJP will always be remembered. As a successful entrepreneur and a personality dedicated to ideology, he will always remain a source of inspiration for all party workers,” Gadkari said in a condolence message.
Union Minister for Road, Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari also expressed grief over Sinha’s demise, recalling his contribution to strengthening the party and his journey as an entrepreneur.
“For me too, he was like a guardian, and his demise is a personal loss,” he said, adding that Sinha’s simplicity, dedication to the organisation and society, and affection for party workers would always be remembered. “The news of the demise of R K Sinha ji, senior leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party and former Rajya Sabha MP, is extremely heartbreaking,” he said.
