All India Congress Committee (AICC) general secretary Mohan Prakash today expressed grief over the demise of party leader Sriniwas Tiwari.
Former Madhya Pradesh Assembly speaker Tiwari, 93, died at a hospital in the national capital yesterday, following prolonged illness.
"Tiwari had a socialist background. He was very committed towards the ideology and was an inspiring figure. His demise is a big loss," Prakash said.
Tiwari, who was popularly known as "White Tiger", is survived by his MLA son, Sunderlal Tiwari.
