A Look at the Statesman's Legacy

Satyendra Narayan Sinha was Bihar's 19th Chief Minister. He was affectionately called Chhote Saheb on his death anniversary. He was a freedom fighter and organised legal aid for political prisoners during pre-Independence days. A strict disciplinarian and tough taskmaster, he is credited with streamlining the entire education system of Bihar when he served as its Education Minister. He was elected to the Lok Sabha from Aurangabad six times, starting in 1952. He opposed the Emergency and became a leading light of Jayaprakash Narayan's 'Sampoorna Kranti' movement. He died on September 4, 2006. (ANI)
