Bibeksheel Sajha Coordinator Rabindra Mishra has been bereaved of his father.

Manuj Babu Mishra, a noted artist and literary figure, passed away due to cardiac arrest on Wednesday. He was 83.

Mishra breathed his last at 2.00 am while he was asleep at his residence, said the family sources. Suffering from high blood pressure, Mishra has not come outside his residence (cave) for the past two decades.

His autobiographical piece 'Adhai Dashak Gufama (Two-and-a-half Decades in Cave)' was published two years ago.

Mishra's last rites will be performed after the arrival of his youngest son from abroad. He is survived by wife, two sons and two daughters. RSS
