                                                         Atal Bihari Vajpayee


Welcome to my blog and thank you for this much support. So let's start. Today's blog is based on "Atal Bihari Vajpayee".  Atal Bihari Vajpayee(25 December 1924– 16 August 2018) was an Indian politician, statesman and a poet who served three terms as the Prime Minister of India, first for a term of 13 days in 1996, then for a period of 13 months from 1998 to 1999, and finally, for a full term from 1999 to 2004. A member of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), he was the first Indian prime minister who was not a member of the Indian National Congress party to have served a full five-year term in office.


He was a member of the Indian Parliament for over five decades, having been elected to the Lok Sabha, the lower house, ten times, and twice to the Rajya Sabha, the upper house. He served as the Member of Parliament for Lucknow until 2009 when he retired from active politics due to health concerns. Vajpayee was among the founding members of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh (BJS), of which he was the president from 1968 to 1972. The BJS merged with several other parties to form the Janata Party, which won the 1977 general election. Vajpayee became the Minister of External Affairs in the cabinet of Prime Minister Morarji Desai. He resigned in 1979, and the Janata alliance collapsed soon after. The erstwhile members of the BJS formed the BJP in 1980, with Vajpayee as its first president.
During his tenure as prime minister, India carried out the Pokhran-II nuclear tests in 1998. Vajpayee sought to improve diplomatic relations with Pakistan, traveling to Lahore by bus to meet with Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. After the 1999 Kargil War with Pakistan, he sought to restore relations through engaging with President Pervez Musharraf, inviting him to India for a summit at Agra.


He was conferred India's highest civilian honor, the Bharat Ratna, by the President of India, Pranab Mukherjee in 2015. The administration of Narendra Modi declared in 2014 that Vajpayee's birthday, 25 December, would be marked as Good Governance Day. He died on 16 August 2018 due to age-related illness.

Early political career (1942–1975)
By 1942, at the age of 16 years, Vajpayee became an active member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. In August 1942, he and his elder brother Prem were arrested for 24 days during the Quit India Movement. He was released after giving a written undertaking stating that while he was a part of the crowd, he did not participate in the militant events in Bateshwar on 27 August 1942.


In 1951, Vajpayee was seconded by the RSS, along with Deendayal Upadhyaya, to work for the newly formed Bharatiya Jana Sangh, a Hindu right-wing political party associated with the RSS. He was appointed as a national secretary of the party in charge of the Northern region, based in Delhi. He soon became a follower and aide of party leader Syama Prasad Mukherjee. In 1954, Vajpayee was with Mukherjee when the latter went on a hunger strike in Kashmir to protest the perceived inferior treatment of non-Kashmiri Indian visitors to the state. Mookerjee died in prison during this strike.


In the 1957 Indian general election, Vajpayee contested elections to the Lok Sabha, the lower house of Indian parliament. He lost to Raja Mahendra Pratap in Mathura but was elected from Balrampur. In the Lok Sabha his oratorial skills so impressed Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru that he predicted that Vajpayee would someday become the Prime Minister of India. Vajpayee's oratorial skills won him the reputation of being the most eloquent defender of the Jana Sangh's policies. After the death of Deendayal Upadhyaya, the leadership of the Jana Sangh passed to Vajpayee. He became the national president of the Jana Sangh in 1968, running the party along with Nanaji Deshmukh, Balraj Madhok, and L. K. Advani.
Personal life
Vajpayee remained a bachelor his entire life. He adopted and raised Namita Bhattacharya as his child, the daughter of longtime friend Rajkumari Kaul and BN Kaul. His adopted family lived with him.


Unlike purist Brahmins who shun meat and alcohol, Vajpayee was known to be fond of whiskey and meat. He was a noted poet, writing in Hindi. His published works include Kaidi Gaviria ki kundalini, a collection of poems written when he was imprisoned during the 1975–77 emergency, and Amar aag hai. About his poetry, he wrote, "My poetry is a declaration of war, not an exordium to defeat. It is not the defeated soldier's drumbeat of despair, but the fighting warrior's will to win. It is not the dispirited voice of dejection but the stirring shout of victory."


Vajpayee suffered a stroke in 2009 which impaired his speech. His health had been a major source of concern; reports said he was confined to a wheelchair and failed to recognize people. He also suffered from dementia and long-term diabetes. For many years, he had not attended any public engagements and rarely ventured out of the house, except for checkups at the All India Institutes of Medical Sciences.


On 11 June 2018, Vajpayee was admitted to AIIMS in critical condition following a kidney infection. He was officially declared dead there at 5:05 pm IST on 16 August 2018 at the age of 93. However, some sources claim that he had died on the previous day. On the morning of 17 August, Vajpayee's body draped with the Indian flag was taken to the Bharatiya Janata Party headquarters where party workers paid their tributes until 1 pm. Later that afternoon at 4 pm, Vajpayee was cremated with full state honors at Rashtriya Smriti Sthal near Raj Ghat, his pyre was lit by his foster daughter Namita Kaul Bhattacharya. Thousands of people and many dignitaries attended his funeral procession including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Ram Nath Kovind. On 19 August, his ashes were immersed in the Ganga river at Haridwar by his daughter Namita.

The curriculum of our current education system

                                        The curriculum of our current education system Today's blog is based on " The curriculum of our current education system ". I wholeheartedly agree that the tight curriculum of our current education system leaves no room for imagination and creativity. The academic pressure is so much on them, they have forgotten their innate creativity and imagination. They are always under the pressure of studies. This pressure is put on them from the beginning of the session. Formative assessment activities of all the subjects, studies and their assignments of all the subjects, unit tests, co-curricular activities, homework, classwork, projects, practical exams, summative examination, date sheet, result, again the new term, etc. So much of pressure on the young growing children! Are we educating them or training them in the art of being stressful throughou...

दुनिया के अजीब रंग

 दुनिया के अजीब रंग  दुनिया कितनी बदल गई है इस बात से तो सभी परिचित है लेकिन समझना नहीं चाहता कोई।  इंसान का व्यवहार तौर तरीका सबमे बदलाव आगया।  पहले का वक़्त देखा जाये तो इंसान खुश रहते थे लेकिन आज सभी एक न खत्म होने वाली एक अनंत दौड़ का हिस्सा मात्र बन कर रह गए है।  तरक्की करना अच्छी बात है लेकिन ऐसी तरक्की किस काम की जो इंसान के अंदर से इंसानियत खत्म कर दे।   पहले नौकरी एक जीवन जीने के लिए महत्वपूर्ण थी लेकिन आज तो कुछ और ही देखने को मिलता है।  इंसान के पास अपनों के साथ वक़्त बिताने तक के लिए वक़्त नहीं है क्यों ? फिर अपने अंतिम समय में उसी इंसान को सब याद आता है की अरे अपने मित्र बंधुवो से तो मिल ही नहीं पाए पूरा जीवन मशीन की तरह काम करने में निकाल दिया और खुद का जीवन जीना ही भूल गए।  दुनिया बड़ी अजीब है एक छोटा सा जीवन मिलता है और उसमे भी हमारा हक़ नहीं होता।   अब लोग आपस में ही प्रतिद्वंदी की भाति व्यवहार करते है और अंतिम छड़ तक उन्हें नहीं पता होता है की प्रतिद्वंदिता थी तो किस चीज की थी।  आज का युग अर्थप्रधान युग है आज के समय ...
