"I am shocked at the death of Kalikho Pul and the news of his death has left me in complete disbelief. He was young and full of positive energies," the Governor said in a release here.
The country and Arunachal Pradesh, in particular, has lost an energetic and dedicated leader who could have contributed immensely to the development of the country, he said.
"I pray to the Almighty for the eternal peace of the departed soul and to grant strength and fortitude to the family members to bear pain at this critical juncture of their life," the Governor said while conveying his condolences to members of the bereaved family.
