Tributes to late PM Rajiv Gandhi on his 28th death anniversary

It was the most unfortunate day when the nation lost a most adored prime minister, a humble, a great son of the soil, affable, down to earth human being and above all a statesman.

Rajiv Gandhi was adored and lauded above party and ideological affiliations. A yrue leader of the masses he was a strong pro poor leader who had the guts to accept in public that corruption is so overwhelmned in our body polity that merely 20 % of a rupee sanctioned from the public exchequer for the welfare n well being of the poor is actually used, while a major part of 80% is siphoned off by the corrupt system via middlemen.

A gentleman prime minister to the hilt it was him who was gracious enough to help late prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee while he was the opposition leader, enabling his treatment for a severe ailment abroad, not let the leader know about it.

This unambiguously speaks about the large humanitarian heart possessed by Rajivji.

His gentle mesmerising smile, his honest urge to improve the lot of the poorest of the poor and his successful foreign n domestic policies made him the prime minister laudable across board nationally n globally.

His outstanding speech in the United States senate impressed one n all in the international diplomatic scenerio.

Rajiv Gandhi strived hard for a true secular, democratic n progressve India who opened doors for globalisation and bringing Information Technology revolution in India. In nutshell, he was a true architect of modern India.

His most diabolical death at the hands of evil forces led to India ridding itself of an era. His martydom will never go waste.

Let’s all follow his ideals, principles, humanity , humbleness and great visionery aporoach n contribute in making India a strong, cohesive and reputed country where all could survive peacefully n in harmony in the days, years and months to come. Long live Rajiv Gandhi. Long live India. Jai Hind.
