New Delhi: Indian PM Narendra Modi on Monday condoled the death of  Bengali writer Buddhadeb Guha.

In his tweet, Modi wrote: "Shri Buddhadeb Guha’s writings were multifaceted and displayed great sensitivity to the environment. His works were enjoyed across generations, particularly among youngsters. His passing away is a big loss to the literary world. Condolences to his family and admirers. Om Shanti."
