The All India Accounts and Audit Officers Association expresses its profound grief and shock at the passing away of Comrade C.S.V.Warrier, Former Secretary General of All India Audit and Accounts Association. Com. Warrier suffered from throat Cancer and expired on 12th November 2008 despite the best medical attention at his home town. He was 78 years old. The demise of Com.Warrier marks the obliteration of one of the personifications of the workers movement from the face of the earth. He shall be ever remembered for the courage and zeal with which he headed the All India Audit & Accounts Association during 1981 to 1988, a task he willingly undertook at a time when it was facing crisis.
Com. Warrier was the best among the outstanding First generation of leaders who developed the workers movement in Indian Audit and Accounts department after Independence. Reared in the glorious revolutionary traditions of the Workers’ movement in Kerala, he rose to be an able exponent of working class politics, a brilliant strategist and organizer of the All India Audit and Accounts Association.
It was Com. Warrier who, by his relentless effort, fuelled by commitment to the cause, built the Association and its infrastructure of today. Under his leadership, the All India Audit and Accounts Association became a powerful and consolidated force. It was due to his untiring efforts, which took a toll on his health, that the All India Audit and Accounts Association occupies the place of pride in the Working Class movement in India. He was a leader who enjoyed the confidence at all levels of the members of this great Association.
He set an exemplary standard in adhering to Middle Class unionism and applying it creatively to the development of the audit movement in the Indian Audit and Accounts Department. He led a simple life and his whole time and energies during his tenure were devoted to the Association.
In his untimely death, the All India Accounts and Audit Officers Association and the leadership have suffered a grievous loss. The workers movement in IA&AD owes its revival and rejuvenation to the demised comrade. He paid a heavy price for the cause by losing his health and sacrificed his family life and gave up only when he could not carry on anymore on account of his ill health. The memory of the comrade will forever shine as a guiding star to us all and his achievements serve as inspiring benchmarks.
The All India Accounts and Audit Officers Association pay its respectful homage to our beloved Comrade C.S.V.Warrier. The National Executive vows to emulate him.
Words fail to convey the grief and the deep sorrow at the demise of the great son of our movement. Nonetheless we hereby endeavour to express our condolences to his family members.
When one recalls his time with Com. Warrier the first to be recalled is his defiant spirit that never faltered before challenges. He was like Norbert Capek who defied Hitler in the face of death. The following would personify the defiant spirit.

It is worthwhile to live and fight courageously for sacred ideals.
O blow ye evil winds into my body's fire my soul you'll never unravel.
Even though disappointed a thousand times or fallen in the
and everything would worthless seem,
I have lived amidst eternity --Be grateful, my soul --My life was worth living.
He who was pressed from all sides but remained victorious in spirit
I have lived amidst eternity --Be grateful, my soul --My life was worth living.
He who was pressed from all sides but remained victorious in spirit
is welcomed into the choir of heroes.
He who overcame the fetters giving wings to his mind
He who overcame the fetters giving wings to his mind
is entering into the golden age of the victorious.
