Role,Freedom

Gordhan cut his political teeth from 1971 when he joined the Natal Indian Congress.

Former Transport Minister and anti-apartheid activist Mac Maharaj has praised his late friend and comrade Pravin Gordhan for playing a big role in the fight for freedom.

“The veritable outpourings of messages of support and appreciation from within South Africa, and across the globe- transcend the years of personal humiliation and racial insults that were showered on him. Together, these messages which continue to come even today, are a testimony of the high regard in which Pravin is held. There is a store of information about PG that will need to be mined in order to get a true measure of his legacy.

“Where Comrade Pravin, using his dialectic material understanding, he was going to say the ANC must unite, the alliance must unite. Together and coherent we need each other. This is our beloved country. This is our journey. We must close ranks and we must work together. It is befitting that we still see comrades entering the hall.”

He served as Minister of Public Enterprises up to the May elections. Prior to that he also served as Minister of Finance and SARS Commissioner.
