Huge loss to India. Son of the soil who kept nation's interest above anything else, rising above petty politics or personal attacks. Sadly they don't produce men like Dr. Kalam and Vajpayee ji anymore. Om Shanti :wp120:

Dr Kalam was at another level though. I have yet to find a man as popular as Kalam in India was and still being so humble and simple. No ego. An inspiring soul.

‘Immersion of Vajpayee’s ashes alien to our way of life’: Nagaland Congress

The Bharatiya Janata Party’s plan to immerse the ashes of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee in Nagaland’s Doyang river has been labelled an imposition of “alien rituals” on the Christian-majority State.

Fundamentalist Christians at it again, now Hindus can't even immerse ashes in rivers in that state. Imagine the plight of Naga Hindus who constitute 9% of the state's population. 

 

Worth considering that Vajpayee was the first PM to start integrating the state with mainland India, he was a true well wisher of the Nagas who started the Naga peace process....see how the tolerant people are repaying him.

To me sounds like he's somewhat justifying radical Hindus in future desecrating churches since those structures are alien to their way of life anyway.

I have no issues with it.
