“Shri Balbir Punj Ji was a prolific writer, thinker and public intellectual. He made a rich contribution to the world of media. His writings were widely read, reflecting his strong passion towards national regeneration. His Parliamentary interventions were rich in facts and theory.

Shri Balbir Punj Ji worked tirelessly to strengthen the BJP, especially among students, professionals, scholars and intellectuals. He was in-charge of various states, including Gujarat. Fondly remember our interactions from those times. Pained by his passing. Condolences to his family and friends. Om Shanti.”

“बलबीर पुंज जी एक प्रसिद्ध लेखक होने के साथ-साथ प्रखर विचारक और सम्मानित बुद्धिजीवी थे। मीडिया के क्षेत्र में उनका योगदान बहुत सराहनीय रहा है। लोग उनकी लेखनी के कायल थे, जिससे राष्ट्र निर्माण के प्रति उनकी गहरी प्रतिबद्धता परिलक्षित होती थी । उनके संसदीय भाषणों में तथ्यों और मानवीय मूल्यों का भरपूर समावेश रहता था।

बलबीर पुंज जी ने भाजपा को सशक्त बनाने के लिए अथक प्रयास किए। विद्यार्थियों, पेशेवरों, विद्वतजनों और बुद्धिजीवियों को उन्होंने पार्टी से जोड़ने में उल्लेखनीय भूमिका निभाई। वे गुजरात सहित कई राज्यों के प्रभारी रहे। उस दौर में उनसे हुए संवाद मेरे लिए अविस्मरणीय रहेंगे। उनके निधन से अत्यंत दुख हुआ है। शोक की इस घड़ी में उनके परिजनों और मित्रों के प्रति मेरी हार्दिक संवेदनाएं। ओम शांति!”
