Gandhi, who is the AICC general secretary in-charge for the party's youth and student wings Youth Congress and NSUI, also said that the great teacher's life "presents us all with an example of love and service for all, especially for the youth."
"Sri Sathya Sai Baba was a beacon of light for millions in India and around the world. As a great teacher, he taught the religion of love, the caste of humanity and the language of the heart. As a social worker, his work in the areas of education, healthcare and drinking water was of an unprecedented scale and quality.
"His life presents us all with an example of love and service for all, especially for the youth. Today, the nation and Sri Sathya Sai Baba's devotees around the globe mourn his loss deeply," he said.
