It's heartening to see his birth centenary being celebrated with such fervor. He was a true statesman respected across party lines. His speech in Hindi at the UN is something every Indian feels proud about 🇮🇳.

While remembering leaders is important, I hope the current workers also imbibe his spirit of consensus-building. Today's politics needs more of Atal ji's dignity and less aggression. A respectful criticism for my own party.

Interesting to read about the scale of this. Covering all 92 constituencies in Delhi is a massive organizational effort. Shows how much they value connecting with grassroots workers.

Pokhran tests, Lahore bus yatra, highway projects... his tenure was indeed action-packed. Young karyakartas should study his oratory skills. The man could hold Parliament spellbound!

Good to see a wide range of leaders from ministers to MLAs addressing these sammelans. Hopefully, they're discussing his policies and not just using it as a routine political event. The real tribute would be to implement his inclusive vision.
