Farewell Com.Kitty Menon ! Red salute!
Good. Not authantic though. She taught only at Kemp College, Punjab University, Delhi and Delhi School of Economics, Delhi University. She married Com. Ram Das, the working editor of Peoples Democracy and a pillar of strength of the CPI-M. One of the most beautiful persons on the campus or in the world, she was equally competent teacher and a scholar. Joined communist movement at the tender age of 17 and never looked back. She would always be remembered by a large community of friends for the qualities of head and heart.
Thank You for the kind comments.In the last page of the Peoples democracy dated 3rd June, article by Com.Sitaram Yechury paying homage to Com. Kitty Menon is published.
