Jagmohan Dalmiya laid to rest with state honours
From his former rivals N. Srinivasan and Sharad Pawar to the current BCCI heavyweights, the Indian cricket fraternity on Monday bid an emotional farewell to Jagmohan Dalmiya, who was laid to rest with full state honour and gun salute.
The 75-year-old talismanic cricket administrator passed away at 8.45 pm on Sunday night following a massive cardiac arrest at the B M Birla Heart Research Centre where he was admitted on Thursday evening.
The cricket fraternity mourned the loss of the man who is credited for making the sport popular and rich, prompting West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to announce a full state honours for the departed Dalmiya.
India’s top cricket administrators including, BCCI secretary Anurag Thakur, ICC chairman Srinivasan, IPL chairman Rajeev Shukla, former presidents of BCCI Sharad Pawar, Shashank Manohar gathered to pay their homage at Eden Gardens, where his body was kept for more than two hours.
The chief minister came around 3pm as it was time for the state guard of honour followed by a three-round gun salute by 10 Kolkata Police officials.
A senior member chanting ‘Dalmiya Amar Rahe’ (Long Live Dalmiya) laid the national flag on the body as it began its final journey to Keoratala crematorium.
Mamta Banerjee, former India captain Sourav Ganguly along with state ministers and other CAB officials went to the crematorium to pay their homage as a pall of gloom descended on the city.
His son and daughter performed the last rites by placing the body on the wooden pyre with sandalwood at 4pm.
Earlier, accompanied by Ravi Shastri, BCCI secretary Thakur was the first to come and the duo first went to Dalmiya’s 10 Alipore Road residence from where the Team India director left for the national camp in Bengaluru.
Dalmiya’s last journey began from his residence at 12.15pm before arriving at his ‘second home’ Eden Gardens around 1 pm accompanied by son Avishek, daughter Vaishali and wife Chandralekha and other relatives.
