Heard of the slogan 'Gai hamari mata hai, Atal Bihari khata hai'?

According to some he even ate beef, but I doubt it. After all he was Brahmin.

I know that, but he was from a different zamana.

Nehru was from even earlier zamana but he would smoke and drink.

I never said Aretha Franklin had relation with ABV.

Probably a million people die every day. it just that on some days more people you know die. That should not creep one. Especially on anti Hindu Karunanidhi.

I remember Atalji from NDA-1. Those were turbulent times with Y2K depression and all. But the government worked well enough to steer the economy through and keep the inflation low. We even had a rare budget surplus !!

There are many memories and surely, many internet links about him, as the news spreads.

Some people won't like what I am writing next, but in 2002 assembly elections in Gujarat, there was every reason not to vote for the BJP. The memories of the riots was too fresh, and the BJP had had 4 Chief Ministers in its 4.5 years in power. But it was Atalji's recommendation reposing faith in the existing government which tilted our vote in BJP's favor.

(of course, after that we voted for continuation based on the performance).

Another noteworthy moment of Atalji came in '98 after they lost the vote of confidence by 1 vote. "We will return with a decisive public vote"..

Please share your memories of Atalji.
