Senior journalist and editor-in-chief of National Herald, Neelabh Mishra, passed away today at a Chennai Hospital. He was critically ill and with complications resulting from non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis. Mishra, 57, was admitted to Apollo Hospital in Chennai earlier this month, and developed multiple organ failure before a liver transplant could be carried out. Mishra steered the re-launch of National Herald, the newspaper. Congress chief Rahul Gandhi condoled his death, describing him as one who spoke the truth to power. An editor's editor. A man who spoke truth to power.
An institution builder. On Neelabh Mishra's tragic passing away this morning, my deepest condolences to his family, friends, colleagues and admirers, he tweeted.
