It was with deep sadness that the National Assembly learnt of the passing of Mr. Navindranauth Omanand Chandarpal, a former Minister of Agriculture and Member of the 7th and 8th Parliaments in the Peoples Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) administration. “Navin” Chandarpal served in the National Assembly with distinction for five (5) years, two (2) months and four (4) days, and was well liked and respected across all political lines. He will be remembered for his principled positions, his wit, and fearless and very amiable character. He was a friend to all and fierce fighter against injustice and oppression. The Speaker and Members of Parliament and Clerk of the National Assembly extend deepest sympathy to his widow, Mrs. Indranie Chandarpal, M.P., and his children, relatives, friends and comrades.
