On X, CM Yogi wrote, "On the sacred death anniversary of revered Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya ji, the founder member of Bharatiya Jana Sangh and the propounder of Integral Humanism, today in Lucknow, floral tributes were offered at his portrait, and he was paid homage. His message of building a strong nation and carrying the light of development to the person standing at the last rung of society is an unparalleled source of inspiration for all of us. Salutations to his sacred memories!"

Bharatiya Janata Party MPs in Delhi, including Manoj Tiwari and Yogendra Chandolia, also paid floral tributes to Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya on his 109th birth anniversary on Wednesday.

Remembering the Bharatiya Jana Sangh leader's philosophy, Tiwari said, "We are very proud that we follow the ideology of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, which is of Antyodaya, of integral humanism. Today is the birth anniversary of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, who proposed that the success of a government is not achieved until the light of governance reaches the person standing in the last row."

It's important to remember the thinkers who shaped political ideologies. Integral Humanism seems like a comprehensive philosophy. Would be good to see more public discourse on how these ideals translate into actual policy for the marginalized.

While paying tributes is good, the real tribute would be to implement his vision of self-reliance and social justice on the ground. Sometimes these anniversaries feel more symbolic than substantive. Just my respectful opinion.

His emphasis on 'last person in society' is a powerful guiding principle for any government. Hope our leaders across parties take this to heart. A great day to reflect on nation-building beyond politics.

Interesting to learn about the intellectual foundations of Indian political thought. Upadhyay's concept of Integral Humanism appears to be a unique blend of social and economic philosophy. More such articles on political thinkers would be enlightening.

Jai Hind! Remembering a great son of Bharat. His work with Rashtra Dharma and Swadesh laid a strong foundation. We need to teach his ideas of nation-first and cultural integrity to the younger generation. 🇮🇳
