Itanagar, Sep 6: The Arunachal Pradesh Assembly today paid tribute to senior Congress leader and former state minister Changkom Hondik who died in June this year.
As soon as the obituary reference was made, Speaker PD Sona said Hondik’s demise is a great loss to the state.
The former minister, who was elected as a Congress MLA from Namsang constituency in 1996, was later inducted as Industries Minister in the Gegong Apang-led government.
He was the general secretary of the Arunachal Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) for two terms and was holding the post of the APCC vice president at the time of his death.
The House observed a two-minute silence in his memory.
Hondik died at a hospital in Assam’s Dibrugarh district on June 17 this year, after a prolonged illness.
