Very sad news. Though I'm not familiar with her work, losing a parent is devastating. The article could have mentioned more about his legal career - being a Delhi HC lawyer is no small achievement.

Condolences to the family. It's touching how she called him the "pillar of strength" - shows how important fathers are in Indian families. Hope she gets the privacy to grieve properly.
