Jyoti Basu, Veteran politician and 95 year old Marxist leader is dead. Basu, 95, who had suffered multi-organ failure was on a temporary pacemaker since late Saturday night.

Basu’s personal physician Dr Ajit Kumar Maity said that the veteran leader breathed his last at 11:47 am at the AMRI Hospital where he was admitted with pneumonia on January . The former chief minister of Bengal was hospitalized with pneumonia and then put on a ventilator following acute breathing problems.

He was admitted a fortnight ago and though his condition improved for some time, his health parameters turned awry from Tuesday and he had to be put on life support.Jyoti Basu served as the Chief Minister of West Bengal for the Left Front government from June 21, 1977 to November 6, 2000.In the year 1996, he was all set to be the consensus leader of the United Front for the post of the prime minister of India. However, it did not work out due to the CPI(M) decision of not participating in the government.

Jyoti Basu resigned from the Chief Minister’s post of West Bengal in 2000, citing health reasons and was succeeded by fellow CPI(M) politician Buddhadeb Bhattacharya. Jyoti Basu holds the record for being the longest serving chief minister in the Indian political history.

    JYOTI BASU’S CONDITION STABILISES
    The latest medical bulletin of the institution where the veteran Communist leader has been admitted for the past few days with what has been diagnosed as pneumonia, reveals that JB’s dependence on blood pressure reducing drugs has been somewhat relieved what with his blood pressure becoming stabilised. What is more important is that the ailing CPI (M) leader’s ventilation support has been lessened to partial support from a full one, with improving conditions.

    Among those who visited JB this evening were Prime Minister Manmohan Singh (who offered specialised medical help from the union government whenever found necessary), union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, CPI (M) general secretary Prakash Karat, CPI (M) Polit Bureau members Sitaram Yechury, Manik Sarkar, and Brinda Karat, as well as Bengal CPI (M) secretary Biman Basu, CPI general secretary Ardhendu Bhusan Bardhan, Bengal chief minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, the union Railways Minister, and by leaders of the Bengal Left Front and of the Bengal opposition.
