The United National Congress (UNC) has released an official statement on August 3, 2025, expressing deep condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of the late Senator Deoroop Teemal. Dr. Kirk Meighoo, the Public Relations Officer, emphasized Senator Teemal’s significant contributions in Parliament and his influential role within the National Council of Indian Culture (NCIC) and the Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (HSS). In a strongly worded condemnation, the UNC criticized Senator Anthony Vieira for making what they termed a “tasteless, offensive, and self-serving” comment during a time meant for honoring Senator Teemal. The UNC accused Vieira of exploiting the situation to exacerbate political divisions and pursue a personal vendetta. They called upon Parliament to pay tribute to Senator Teemal with the respect and dignity he earned, urging a rejection of the bitterness and immaturity reflected in Vieira’s remarks. The release underscores the UNC’s commitment to fostering unity and respect in political discussions, particularly during times of national mourning.
