Senior Congress leader Priya Ranjan Dasmunsi, who was in a coma since 2008, today passed away at a hospital. He was 72. He had been critically ill since the past one month and succumbed to the illness at 12.10 pm. His family members including wife Deepa Dasmunsi and their son were at his bedside at that time. The former union minister had suffered a stroke in 2008 and was hospitalized since then. Dasmunsi was heading the all India football federation when he was taken ill. Priya Ranjan Dasmunsi was a charmer. It is ironical that the Congress leader, who fought the left all his life and willingly, ceded opposition space to a much junior Mamata Banerjee and her newly formed trimool congress without letting that sour their relationship never got to know that left had been overthrown in west Bengal in 2011.
