DEATH OF PANDIT MADAN MOHAN MALAVIYA THE HONOURA.BLE THE PRESIDEN1': Honourable Members, I presume you must have all heard with profound grief and sorrow the death of one of our most illustrious citizens, the late Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya. He was a national figure and he is now dead in the zenith of popularity which few politicians have attained in this country. His life was a remarkable and unselfish life, as we are aJl aware and many of you know how strenuously for many years he has worked for the good of this country. I had the privilege of working with him for over 20 years and I was associated with him in many important committoos and bodies, including the Round Table Conference, and I shall just say a few words regarding his great work which was performed by him in India. His life from the earliest period was very exemplary and worthy of emulation by young citizens of India. He did remarkable work as bo youngster. He first rose from a very humble position to one of the highest positions in the affections of the people of this country. He h808 got a nation- wide reputation; not only nation-Wide, but he had also a world-wide reputation. He started life as a school master, but subsekJuently exchanged, 808 many great men have done, for journalism; and after working as a journalist for some years he took law and obtained his degree; and though in a few years time he acquired a statUI and position at the Bar, he ltill did not like to continue the profession because his love was for another line, to serve unselfishly the nation and lead a political life, though ru, was to be a great loser peeunia.rily. His first aCtivity after he left law waa.to join the National Congress in 1886 and yoo are all aware what a great arid ardeat follower -of the Congress movement he was and what hard work he did for many years and how unsel1ishly he exerted for the good of the country, at Ie. fOr :the advancement and progress of India towardil independence and freedom. In addition to his work, he was a member of the Legislative Council of his Province and did remarkably good and useful work there. As you are all aware, he beoame 80 famoua .il) the national. cause that he waa calle«! upon twice to preside over the 127 118 OOUROIL 01' I'I'AD [18m Nov. 1~ [The PNlident ] National Congress which he did with good graoe, with great knowledge and with pub1ic~approbation. After he had done this national work, he had the good fortune in 1920 to be eleoted as a member of the late Imperial Lagis1a.tive Council and in that body I had the good fortune to come in contact with him and then we worked together from 1920 for nearly 20 years. In the Imperial Legislative Council he WIto8 a. lliost }n:ollli1l6ut figun,. At Llu.t L.illltt We h..J.lluL .lIl
