New Delhi, Feb 12:  Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday expressed grief over the demise of renowned industrialist Rahul Bajaj, saying that the latter made a ‘big contribution’ towards the progress of the country.

Taking to Twitter, he said: “Got very sad news of the death of the country’s famous industrialist Rahul Bajaj ji. He made a big contribution to the progress of the country on the economic front.”

Bajaj, 83, the doyen of the Bajaj Group, passed away in Pune following his long battle with cancer.
