CPI(ML) mourns the passing of Comrade S. Sudhakar Reddy, former General Secretary of the Communist Party of India. Twice elected to the Lok Sabha from Nalgonda (1998 and 2004), Comrade Sudhakar Reddy, was a steadfast voice of the working class and peasantry. As Chairman of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Labour, he consistently raised issues of workers’ rights, social security, and the dignity of labour.
From his student days he emerged as a revolutionary leader, serving twice as General Secretary of the All India Students’ Federation (AISF) in the late 1960s.
We convey our heartfelt condolences to his family members, comrades, friends, and admirers. He will remain a role model for younger generations of communists.
Red Salute to Comrade Sudhakar Reddy.
