Comrade Singi Khalkho, a senior activist of the CPI(ML) and a prominent leader of AIPWA, passed away on March 17, 2025 at RIMS, Ranchi. She had been battling illness for the past few years and was in critical condition in recent days. She was 60 years old.

Comrade Singi Khalkho had been a steadfast pillar of the party since the 1980s, dedicating her life to the struggle for justice and equality. She not only shaped her life around the party but also made her home a centre for the movement. Her unwavering commitment to the working class and women's struggles remained an inspiration for generations of activists. Despite facing immense personal hardships, she stood firm in every battle waged by the party, from its early struggles to its present-day fight for justice.

As a key leader of AIPWA, she served as a National Council Member and President of the Ranchi District Unit, playing a crucial role in mobilising women and strengthening the movement. Her deep political understanding, resilience, and quiet strength made her an invaluable leader, mentor, and comrade.

Her passing is an irreparable loss to CPI(ML) Liberation and AIPWA. The party salutes her lifelong dedication to the cause of the oppressed. Red Salute to Comrade Singi Khalkho!
