New Delhi: Leaders from across the political spectrum condoled the demise of Nobel Laureate author V S Naipaul, with President Ram Nath Kovind terming it a “loss for world of letters” and Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying, it was a major loss for the world of literature.
Naipaul is the recipient of numerous honours, including the Man Booker Prize in 1971 and a knighthood for services to literature in 1990. Naipaul was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2001.
Kovind in a tweet said, “Sad to learn of the passing of V.S. Naipaul whose books are an penetrative exploration of faith, colonialism and the human condition, in his home in the Caribbean and beyond.” “A loss for the world of letters and for the broader school of Indo-Anglian literature,” he said.
ThePM wrote on Twitter, “Sir VS Naipaul will be remembered for his extensive works, which covered diverse subjects ranging from history, culture, colonialism, politics and more.” “His passing away is a major loss to the world of literature. Condolences to his family and well wishers in this sad hour.” (PTI)
