Manhera was also the party's in-charge for Himachal.

Chandigarh BSP leader Anwar-ul Haq said Manhera was in his mid 50s and is survived by his wife, two daughters and two sons.

Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda expressed deep shock and sorrow over the sad demise of Manhera.

In his condolence message, Hooda said in his death, the country had lost a great social worker who worked for the welfare of weaker sections of society.
