Union Minister for Information & Broadcasting Ambika Soni today
condoled the death of Ajay Tiwari, a young television journalist, who
died when a wall collapsed on him while he was covering a major fire
in South-West Delhi yesterday.



"In Mr Tiwari's death, Indian journalism has lost promising talent. Mr
Tiwari died in the line of his duty maintaining the highest tradition
of television journalism," Ms Soni said.



Tiwari, 27, who was working for a Noida-based Hindi television channel
was covering a fire at a four-storeyed clothes godown near Dwarka here
yesterday afternoon. As he was taking shots of the fire, a gas
cylinder blast caused a wall to collapse and he was buried under the
rubble. He was rushed to a hospital but succumbed to his injuries,
sources added.
