Harsh Malhotra recalls former Delhi CM’s legacy of public service; Darshana Jardosh vows to pursue his vision of a ‘Developed Delhi’

New Delhi: The Delhi unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday paid tribute to former Delhi Chief Minister, Governor and state BJP president Madan Lal Khurana on his death anniversary, with senior party leaders recalling his contributions to the national capital and his commitment to public welfare.

Delhi BJP President Harsh Malhotra, Delhi Legislative Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta, BJP state co-in-charge Darshana Jardosh and MP Yogendra Chandolia were among those who paid floral tributes to the late leader.

Khurana’s family members, including his wife, Raj Khurana; son and MLA Harish Khurana; daughter-in-law Vandana Vimal Khurana; and grandson Sanyam Chhabra, also paid their respects. Former Governor Jagdish Mukhi, former Delhi BJP president Adesh Gupta and other senior leaders and party office-bearers attended the tribute ceremony.

Describing Khurana as a symbol of dedication, forthrightness and public service, Malhotra said his leadership had helped shape Delhi’s development and modernisation.

As Chief Minister, Khurana contributed to the development of infrastructure and public services, including flyovers, electricity and water supply, while also promoting public welfare initiatives, Malhotra said. He added that Khurana had strengthened the BJP’s organisational base in Delhi during his tenure as state party president.

“His life remains an example of simplicity, patriotism and unwavering commitment to the welfare of the poor,” Malhotra said, reiterating that Khurana’s vision of ‘Delhi’s rights for the people of Delhi’ would continue to inspire the party.

Malhotra said the BJP would follow the late leader’s ideals and work towards building a developed and empowered Delhi. He described Khurana as a leader whose contribution would be remembered for generations.

Jardosh also paid tribute to Khurana, describing him as a champion of Delhi’s development and an embodiment of public service. She said his efforts to modernise the capital, strengthen the party organisation and work for the welfare of the poor remained a source of inspiration.

She added that the BJP would seek to fulfil its resolve to build a ‘Developed Delhi’ by following Khurana’s ideals.

The leaders’ tributes highlighted Khurana’s legacy in Delhi politics and renewed the party’s commitment to the development vision he championed.
