Noida, May 17: Veteran Marxist leader Harkishan Singh Surjeet, who was admitted to a hospital in Noida with an acute respiratory problem, has slipped into coma.

His condition remains critical. "He is in coma and is not responding," said Dr Purushottam Lal, who is monitoring his condition at the Metro Hospital.

92-year-old Surjeet was admitted to the hospital on May 6.

"Though his vital organs are stable, his condition is

neither better nor worse. He had seizures and was medicated for it and his brain is still functioning," he said.

Due to his failing health, Surjeet was, for the first time, not included in the CPM Politburo at the party's 19th congress in April, 2008. He was instead designated as Special Invitee to the Central Committee.

Hitler was animal loving vegetraian.He was a blue patriot. by DILIP/FRANCE on 17 May 2008

It is worth noting by the ignorants.Hitler had promised its German citizens during the 2 world war, that if Germany wins the war, all germans will be gifted with a Volkeswagon car.Germany lost the war, and now most Germans drive a Mercedis, what did the Chinese Communism do to India, for the last 65 years? Most indians still ride on donkey carts and defacate in public places.This is waht this liberal elitist morons are proud off and champion.If you love to live in ghettos so much why don't you shift to ghetto land.We hindus want to prosper and live the same standard of livings as the Germans.Shut your pious twaddle.

Commuinsts are curse on India. by DILIP/FRANCE on 17 May 2008

Judgement day's will come to all ferals, weasels,obfuscators and congenital liars.Comunism has been the curse,on the poor and the impoverished, in India.The fallacious,discredited and cannard idelogy has been exposed time and again, to be based on lies,decits, irrationality and fiendish propaganda.Communism has not made any positive contributions, for the socio/economic development, like muslims. They are muted vires and is corroding the apparatus of India and engineering a dysfunctional society, to create strife,mayhem,and instability.They already manage to stall all REFORMS and Social and Economic developmenta.Our P.M.in crutches, are running scared to take these weasels on head on.Any way what we are bewilderd off, is that how come Comrade Karat.Basu,Bardhan and Yucheri, doing in India, send them to Chengdu,so that they can serve there Chinese Masters and TYRANTS. This is the test to prove their loyalty to the twisted ideology.

Poor Surjeet, once upon a time a kingmaker. Anyway some of the commies live in coma all their life while others like Bhardhan, Yechury, Mr and Mrs Karat, brain dead Basu have selective amnesia.

surjeet by ganesh on 17 May 2008

This comrade no good for India. Why IE gives importance to this stupid, when you have burning Issue like Bomb Blast and terrorist. Spent you valuable time in covering the poor people died in the blast and to get compensation for them. Instead don't waste your time giving improtance to Chinese agents like surjeeth, Karath, Bhardan.
