Instinct foretold death?

NEW DELHI, SEPT. 30. The senior Congress leader, Mr. Madhavrao Scindia, had a premonition about today's crash which claimed his life, according to the general secretary of the Communist Party of India (Marxist), Mr. Harkishen Singh Surjeet.

Discussing his trip to Kanpur to address a rally with the CPI(M) leader yesterday, Mr. Scindia had referred to the increasing number of aircraft accidents. ``Even air journeys are no longer safe and one has to carefully choose an aircraft,'' Mr. Scindia had told Mr. Surjeet.

Mr. Scindia's death was a grave loss for the Congress, Mr. Surjeet said.
