I pray to God, may God give you strength and bless you so that you can love your mother with your action and activities. I convey my gratitude to you because you were supposed to come to West Bengal but because of the sad demise of your mother you couldn’t come but have joined us virtually.
“The Chief Minister also requested PM Modi to cut short the programme and to take rest as he had just come from the cremation of his mother. “I don’t know how to give my condolences and messages to your family members and others because the mother is no substitute for any other.
