“श्री शिवराज पाटील जी यांच्या निधनाने दुःख झाले आहे. ते एक अनुभवी नेते होते. सार्वजनिक जीवनातील आपल्या प्रदीर्घ कारकिर्दीत त्यांनी आमदार, खासदार, केंद्रीय मंत्री, महाराष्ट्र विधानसभेचे तसेच लोकसभेचे अध्यक्ष म्हणून काम केले. समाजाच्या कल्याणासाठी योगदान देण्याच्या ध्येयाने ते झपाटले होते. ​गेल्या काही वर्षांत त्यांच्यासोबत माझे अनेक वेळा संवाद झाले, त्यापैकी सर्वात अलीकडील भेट काही महिन्यांपूर्वीच जेव्हा ते माझ्या निवासस्थानी आले होते तेव्हा झाली होती. या दुःखद प्रसंगी माझ्या संवेदना त्यांच्या कुटुंबीयांसोबत आहेत. ओम शांती.”
