In a poignant statement, CPI(M) leader Prakash Karat addressed the profound impact of Sitaram Yechury's passing. "In the passing away of Comrade Sitaram Yechury, our party has suffered a big blow. Democratic and secular forces in our country have also suffered a grievous loss," Karat said in a recent video.

Karat’s remarks underscore the deep sense of loss felt within the Communist Party of India (Marxist) and among broader democratic and secular communities. Yechury, a distinguished leader and former Rajya Sabha MP, was highly regarded for his dedication and contributions to political and social causes.
