Hyderabad, March 6, 2013: YSR Congress Party honorary president Smt. Y. S. Vijayamma has condoled the death of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez saying a welfare chapter has ended in world history with his death.  

In a statement issued in Hyderabad on Wednesday, she said, at a time when capitalism became a challenge to the world, Chavez had proved in his 14-year rule that Government policies should be guided by people’s welfare, development of the poor and socialism.
