Atal Bihari Vajpayee, former Prime Minister of India who was the first non Congress Prime Minister to complete his full term of 5 years breathed his last today at All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi. He was 93 years old and had retired from public life in 2009 owing to illness. A fiery orator, a powerful poet and a seasoned parliamentarian, Atal ji will be remembered for giving India its rightful place on the world stage. Pokhran 2 will remain the crowning glory of his tenure and a great moment in the history of India. His tenure saw unprecedented economic growth and spate of reforms that India desperately needed. From the telecom revolution to Golden Quadrilateral, Atal ji will be remembered for his visionary politics.
Nation grieves the death of a hero and statesman. India has lost one of its tallest leaders.
