The medical report of the doctors on Tuesday mentioned that the physical condition of the former minister, who was undergoing treatment at a private hospital in Kolkata, was very critical. “He was far more than a colleague in public life. We shared a close and enduring bond built over many years. As a former Minister, MLA and a dedicated member of the Trinamool Congress family, he devoted his life to the party and, above all, to the service of the people. His unwavering loyalty, commitment and years of selfless service made him an invaluable part of our family.
Expressing condolences over her former cabinet colleague’s death, Mamata Banerjee said that she was deeply heartbroken by the passing of Ujjal Biswas. His passing is a deeply personal loss and leaves a void that cannot be filled,” Mamata Banerjee said in her social media statement. What made Biswas’s demise even more painful was the ordeal he was forced to endure in the final months of his life, according to her.
After bypass surgery, he suffered a brain stroke, and since then, he has been facing one after another physical complications.
