With great sorrow it is intimated that Com.W.Sheshagiri Rao, veteran leader, former General Secretary JETA and former President SNEA passed away today early morning at Bengaluru due to severe heart attack. He was only 67.
Com.Rao was a militant leader who led the workers through many struggles.
His death is a great loss to the Telecom TU movement.
Last time I met him was at the AIC of SNEA at Jaipur. In my speech, I specifically mentioned about the great role played by him on the issues of the workers.
My heartfelt condolences to the family, friends and comrades of SNEA.
