Farewell Sharad Joshi

Photo: By Manuwant Choudhary. Sharad Joshi speaking at Swatantra Party 50 years.

Today people pay their last respects to their beloved Leader Sharad Joshi.

My nephew attended it in Pune at the Deccan grounds and he called up to describe a heartfelt secene....people from all parts of rural India, the poorest farmers, and the VIPs all standing in a single file....many crying.

A dignified farewell to a rare Indian politician who led  a such dignified public life...always standing up for farmers and freedom.
