Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday condoled the passing away of veteran journalist K.K. Katyal.
Describing him as a conscientious chronicler of the nation's evolution over decades, Gandhi said his contributions will always be remembered.
The 88-year-old scribe is survived by his wife and two daughters.
Katyal had worked with various newspapers including The Statesman, Hindustan Times and The Hindu, where he had joined just after Emergency and retired on superannuation as Associate Editor in 2004.
He had a stint with United States Information Services as well.
