Yadav (82) died on Monday at a hospital in Gurugram after prolonged illness.

As the defence minister of the country and the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, the contribution of Yadav will remain unforgettable, Gandhi said in her message.

”More than that, his struggle for the oppressed and downtrodden will always be remembered,” she said.

Whenever there was a need to protect the constitutional values ​​of the country, the Congress has always got his support, she added.
