Babbar pays tribute to Solanki

Filed under:

HAJI MUSHTAQ Solanki was not only a big politician but a great human being also, said cine star and MP from Agra and one of the protagonists of Jan Morcha, Raj Babbar, here today. Babbar visited Haji Mushtaq Solankis residence to pay tribute to the departed soul.

Babbar reached Solankis residence at around 9 am from the State Capital and met Solankis sons Irfaan and Rizwan, and consoled them. After a meeting with them, he also met the wife and mother of the MLA and consoled them.

After staying at the MLAs residence for about an hour, he left for State Capital.

However, before leaving, Babbar while talking to mediapersons, said that no wonder the political vacuum created by the sad demise of Haji Mushtaq Solanki could never be filled but said that family members of the MLA should follow in the footsteps of Solanki.
