I am deeply saddened at the untimely demise of Dr. Ashok Kumar MP, and offer my sincere condolences to his family. Dr. Kumar was a respected parliamentarian and served his constituency with great distinction. He cherished his Indian roots and will be remembered as a time-tested friend of India.
As the Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group on India, he helped in promoting deeper understanding between India and the UK.
May God rest his soul in peace.
