Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], August 22 (ANI): BJP MP Rajveer Singh on Sunday broke down while paying last respects to his father, the late former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Kalyan Singh who passed away at a hospital here at the age of 89.
"He may not be physically among us, but we will complete his unfinished works now. He lived in the hearts of people. He hasn't passed away, he has become immortal," Rajveer Singh while talking to ANI.
Singh will be cremated on Monday at the banks of river Ganga in Narora.
Kalyan Singh who was ailing for some time passed away on August 21 at Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGI) in Lucknow, due to sepsis and multi-organ failure.
