New Delhi, Oct 15 (IBNS): President Pranab Mukherjee on Wednesday condoled the passing away of Trinamool Congress' Lok Sabha MP Kapil Krishna Thakur.

In his condolence message to his wife, Mamata Thakur, President said, “I am extremely sad to learn about the passing away of your husband, Kapil Krishna Thakur.

I knew Kapil Krishna Thakur over a long period of time as his father, and your father-in-law, late P.R. Thakur was my colleague in Lok Sabha during 1967-1971. Even after that I continued to have personal contact with late P.R. Thakur until his demise. Sad and untimely death of Kapil Krishna Thakur is an irreparable loss to you and your family, especially his mother, Beenapani Devi. Kindly accept my heartfelt condolences and convey the same to other members of your family. I pray to the Almighty to give you and your family the strength and courage to bear this irreparable loss”.
