Atal Bihari Vajpayee stands tall as a statesman and continues to inspire countless people, Prime Miner Narendra Modi wrote today, paying tribute to the former Prime Miner on his birth centenary. “Our nation will always be grateful to Atal Ji for being the architect of India’s transition into the 21st century. When he took oath as PM in 1998 our nation had passed through a period of political instability. In about 9 years, we had seen 4 Lok Sabha elections. The people of India were getting impatient and also sceptical about governments being able to deliver. It was Atal Ji who turned this tide providing stable and effective governance. Coming from humble roots, he realised the struggles of the common citizen and the transformative power of effective governance,” the Prime Miner wrote. Born on December 25, 1924, Atal Bihari Vajpayee was a towering figure in Indian politics and a beloved leader of the nation. Known for his oratory skills and poetic prowess, he served as India’s Prime Miner thrice, leaving a lasting legacy with his vision for economic reforms, infrastructure development, and diplomacy. He was instrumental in conducting the 1998 nuclear tests and launching significant initiatives like the Golden Quadrilateral project to enhance the country’s road infrastructure.
