Verma was a firebrand politician and never shied from calling a spade, a spade. Though much has been written about his animosity with his adversary with Madanlal Khurana, Verma was much more "grassroots". His loyalty to the BJP was unflappable and in his demise, the BJP and indeed Indian politics has lost an emerging star.

Yes mr. Kulkarni, he was indeed a fireband leader. No one could have matched his stature; having all the qualities and doing justice to his job. It cannot be a mere accident and it should be investigated, it can be a job of insider or from other party or from the ISI or militants who were not visible in DELHI during his regime.

Fella! No Body knows who is this IDIOT in the South. Don't Eulogize much about some body who is not a familiar figure in the whole of the Country.

its sad that people do not have a tendency to know their country better. If you do not know a personality, try to know.

I think we all should have some decency and should refrain from posting negative things about the person who is now deceased.

Corruption is a common word which can be used almost for all politicians except barring a few but, as fas as other traits are concerned, late Sahib Singh Verma was definitely a very open hearted and grass root level undisputed leader of BJP. His untimely demise is a great loss to the nation.

Yes, he was common mass leader. so simple. approachable. good man go early. its great tragedy. his role as Delhi, CM and Union minister was remarkable. Its irrepairable loss to family, BJP and nation.
