Reports said that he passed away at his residence Baghwanpora, Lal Bazaar, Srinagar.

Fida Ali was one of the few old generation Information Officers who knew the art of public relations without the internet and modern gadgets. It was because of this capacity that Fida Ali was appointed as Officer on Special Duty in Chief Minister’s office.

Fida Ali was unwell for a long time. However, he had turned critical in May.

He is survived by two daughters and a wife. Both his daughters are settled.

His colleagues are pained over the loss. One of his erstwhile subordinates, Ahsan Chasti wrote on his Facebook: “He was the supervisor, guide and above all an always smiling friend besides being an immediate officer whom we reported while he was in service. His daily meetings in his chamber would always be like friendly chats where subordinates instead of justifying their mistakes would humbly report them. Who among us would forget the naeder mounji he would always serve whenever we would be with him. Indeed a very capable professional and a passionate officer, he would always take interest in the problems of his subordinates and bestow with his experiences and advice. Rare to find such people now.”
