Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee as a towering personality, will always remain a beacon to inspire the young politicians to tread the path of value-based politics. He was a multifaceted personality and a fine human being with the qualities of the head and heart. He was “true statesman, a great scholar, an eminent poet besides a heartthrob of millions of countrymen.”

Vajpayee’s stint as Prime Minister would be remembered by one and all for his path-breaking initiatives namely the Pradhanmantri Gramin Sadak Yojana, Sarv Siksha Abhiyan, Telecom Revolution and introduction of Fiscal Responsibility Act, which transformed the destiny of India.

As Prime Minister Mr Vajpayee had extremely cordial and warm relations with all the Chief Ministers irrespective of their party affiliations and treated them equally without any prejudice of regionalism.

He has left an indelible imprint in the Indian polity and global arena, strengthening the bonds of peace, communal harmony and national integration.
