arghton 6,763 Posted January 29 Indian politician and independence activist P. Narsa Reddy dead at 92. I think there might be only 7 Indian independence activists left with Wikipedia pages, correct me if I'm wrong - ages 96 to 100: 1 - VS Achuthanandan (1923) Severely ailing for the last 5 years. One of Drol's top immortals. 2 - LK Advani (1927) Co-founder of ruling party BJP and former deputy prime minister. Not a DDP pick, but I think there's a decent chance he'll obit. 3 - Krishnammal Jagannathan (1926) Social activist. Seems to suffer from Parkinson's or something similar. 4 - Ramjee Singh (1927) Gandhian activist and former Member of Parliament. 5 - Shobhana Ranade (1924-2024) Social worker, Gandhian. 6 - Sailesh Kumar Bandopadhyay (1926-2016) Activist, "close associate of Gandhi" 7 - V. P. Appukutta Poduval (1923) "Gandhian since 1934". Interesting eyewitness/relic of Indian history. Satya Narayan Gourisaria possibly died in 2019 and Shanta Vasisht might be dead too. Edit: Sailesh Kumar Bandhopadhyay seems to be dead too, referred to on facebook as "late" and there are some Bangla posts from 2016 saying he's dead. Also marked to have died on the Bangla wiki. That makes 6. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
