Fidel Castro Memories

While Cuban President Raul Castro has promised that no monument will be erected in memory of Fidel, his brother's image has been plastered across state media since his death.

Cuba mourned revolutionary leader Fidel Castro on Sunday as the communist island prepared to say its last goodbyes to the towering giant of its modern history with mass memorials and a four-day funeral procession.

Fidel Castro, the iconic Cuban revolutionary leader who died today, will be remembered in India for his close association with the Nehru-Gandhi family and especially his "sisterly" ties with former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi - which he sealed with a bear hug during the Non-Aligned Summit in New Delhi in 1983.

Fidel Castro praised his brother, Cuban President Raul Castro, on Thursday for shaking hands with US President Barack Obama at a memorial for Nelson Mandela.
