Kolkata, April 30 (IANS) The President of Sarada Math and Ramakrishna Sarada Mission, Pravrajika Anandaprana (97), passed away on Tuesday.
She was suffering from age-related ailments for some time now.
Founded by Swami Vivekananda, the Sarada Math and Ramakrishna Sarada Mission is the monastic order for women established as an independent counterpart of the Ramakrishna Order.
She was the fifth President of the institution.
