Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Thursday said that former Prime Minister A.B. Vajpayee’s political life continued to serve as a reference point for good governance for leaders across the country.
Mr. Mohan was addressing a public meeting at Dharmavaram in Sri Sathya Sai district, after unveiling the BJP doyen’s statue, which marked the launch of the ‘Good Governance Yatra’ in Andhra Pradesh.
He recalled Vajpayee’s early years as son of a schoolteacher, his participation in national movements, imprisonment in Kashmir, and his emergence as a unifying figure, capable of bringing multiple parties onto a single platform.
Vajpayee had shown that political stability could be achieved through consensus, and his coalition leadership remained a benchmark, Mr. Mohan observed.
He highlighted Vajpayee’s contributions in telecom reforms, rural road connectivity, nuclear tests and welfare programmes, noting that these helped shape modern India.
