LAL BAHADUR SHASTRI IN LIFE AND IN DEATH ... 1
The unsung hero of the 1965 Indo-Pak war, the diminutive leader of a fledgling nation coming to terms with a malefic neighbour, the victim of a heinous international conspiracy of elimination, Lal Bahadur Shastri remains a perennial inspiration to all who aspire for political cleanliness and clarity, leadership strength and character, and above all, a selfless simplicity of being that puts nation before personal interest and conduces effectively to the well-being of its citizens.
Rising from a humble background to an eminence that remains undimmed till date, Shastriji shines like the Pole Star in a political sky clouded by corruption and calumny and serves as the guiding spirit for a nation tiding through troubled times. Shall we study his life and seek inspiration? Shall we bow down to him as willing students eager to learn? Shall we pay him homage by lifting the veil over his mysterious death and accepting him in our hearts as a beacon in the dark night through tempestuous seas? Upon our choice depends the life of a nation, upon our resolve the fate of a billion people.
