The Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) postponed all its programmes as a respect to former Chief Minister Oommen Chandy.
Expressing grief over his death, IUML national organising secretary and parliamentary party leader E.T. Mohammed Basheer, MP, described Chandy as an epitome of compassion.
“I have not seen a political leader as clean as Oommen Chandy. I worked with him when he was the Finance Minister as well as the Chief Minister. He worked tirelessly throughout his life. He must be resting peacefully after his death,” said Mr. Basheer.
