A wave of grief has swept across the Holi-Bharmour region following the tragic d*eath of Youth Congress State Vice President Chandermani Kulethi, who lost his life after coming into contact with an electric current while preparing for an upcoming festival event.
The unfortunate incident occurred amid preparations for Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu’s proposed visit to Holi. According to reports, Kulethi was working with party workers at the Eco Park venue, helping arrange flags and decorations for the event when he accidentally came into contact with a live electric line. The electrocution proved fatal, and he died on the spot.
A dedicated and active Congress leader, Chandermani Kulethi had established himself as a prominent young political figure in the region. He was known for his commitment to organizational activities and grassroots outreach. Recently, he had actively participated in Rahul Gandhi’s protest rally in Delhi, where he was reportedly injured during a police baton charge.
His untimely demise has left Congress workers, supporters, and residents of the Holi-Bharmour area in deep shock and mourning. Local residents described him as an energetic and promising young leader whose loss will be deeply felt across the region.
Following the tragic incident, Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu cancelled all his scheduled public engagements and is travelling to Holi to attend Kulethi’s last rites and offer condolences to the bereaved family.
The incident has cast a shadow over the festival preparations and left the entire region mourning the loss of a young leader whose political journey was cut short unexpectedly.
