Atal Bihari Vajpayee Passes Away

[kkkk]

Great Man! great achievements...

the definition of 'Sanyam'.


no strikes, no closures, no burning buses by public... there is no mistaking the emotions though....

comparing with deaths of other small party leaders recently,
reminds me of a proverb which goes something like shallow flowing water makes a lot of noise

I wonder what he could have done.

He and Advani were playing good cop bad cop (For other parties Hindutva was and still is bad). ABV was the face in case of a coalition.

But such was his magic that Seculars say he was secular. Liberals say he was Liberal. And Hindutva supporters say he was a Hindutva supporter.

Now looks like his 2 nieces (one in Cong, one in BJP) are fighting each other over what exactly he was.
