With great shock and sorrow, it is informed that Comrade Suchitra Lekhre, Sr. TOA Indore and Asst. Circle Treasurer of BSNLEU, M.P., is no more. She was suffering from cancer for the last few months and succumbed to the same at 13.30 hours today, 10th November 2013.
Comrade Suchitra is the wife of Comrade S.M.Lekhre, senior BSNLEU leader and present District Secretary of AIBDPA, Indore. Both are active workers of BSNLEU, and earlier AITE Union E.III (Namboodiri). At the time of Bhopal All India Conference in Bhopal in 1991, Com. Lekhre has played a big role for the success of Com.Moni-Namboodiri panel. Both were active in progressive movements.
I had the opportunity to visit the Lekhres in their house along with other comrades much earlier. This time, when I visited Indore three months earlier to inaugurate the AIBDPA District Union, Com. Suchitra Lekhre, though she was seriously suffering, attended the same and met me and remembered my earlier visit to their house. That was the last time I met her. And today at about 14.00 hours, Com. Prakash Sharma, Dist. Secretary, BSNLEU, Indore, intimated by SMS the sudden death of our dear comrade.
Com. Suchitra leaves behind her husband Com. S.M.Lekhre and one son and one daughter.
I convey my heartfelt condolences to Com.Lekhre and family and comrades! It is a great loss.
