Bharat Ratna is the highest award given by the government of India to those who have served the nation in the most distinct manner. This year the award will be given to the two most distinguished leaders of Indian polity Atal Vihari Bajpayee and Sri Madan Mahan Malviya.There is no need of reference for these two in India asVajpayee served three times as PM of India and Malviya ji as nationalist leader was elected four times as the President of the Congress. He has also founded Banaras Hindu University.
This award is the highest civilian award given for exceptional services in the public life and it was constituted in 1954 and the first recipients were Rajgopalachari, C.V.Raman and Sri Radhakrishnan. In 1955 it was conferred to Pandit Nehru.As regards to it present recipient Sri Atal Vihari Bajpayee was born in 1924 in Gwaliar district of MP and is known for his oratory skills and political inclusiveness. He became member of the Lok Sabha in 1957 and looking at his political skills and oration Pandit Nehru said that one day this leader will become PM of India. This became true in 1996 when he became PM for thirteen days as his government failed to prove majority in the House. He again became PM in 1998 for the thirteen months and his government again fell down due to lack of majority by one vote. Finally he ran government from 1999 to 2004 as NDA leader.
Political reactions on conferring Bharat Ratna to Mr Bajpayee are encouraging and leaders from across the parties have welcomed the decision of the government. However according to many political thinkers it is late to recognize contributions of such a great leader with no blemish on his 51 years of political career. Unfortunately, today he is not even in a position to express his happiness as after stroke in 2009, he is unable to speak and even fails to recognize people. It is reason why people across the political parties had demanded Bharat Ratna for him since long.
He is a true freedom fighter and was jailed for participating in1942 Quit India Movement but was released after tweny one days on tbe promise that he will not participate in anti government movements but that was only for moment as he was an active member of anti British movement in India. After independence he joined RSS and later on he was made Serectrary General of Bhartiya Jan Singh . Again in 1975 he was sent to the jail for opposing Emergency .After formation of Janata Party he became External Minister in 1977.He is known for his speech in Hindi in the UNO.
As regards to Madan Mohan Malviya the second recipient of Bharat Ratna is concerned, he is a true champion of Indian ideology and patriotism. The founder of BHU is known for his love for independent India. Many people may not be knowing that Satyameva Jayte slogan on Bharat Stham was suggested by Malviya ji and Ganges was diverted towards Haridwar due to efforts of Malviya ji.He started the practice of Aarti on the ghats of Ganga in Haridwar that still see it today.He also served as the Congress President four times I in1909, ,1918 1932 and 1933 and was regarded as a great nationalist leader and supporter of Hindi.He impressed with his speech in 1886 in the second annual meeting of the Congress where he spoke for 4 hours.
He founded BHU in 1916 with Annei Besent for which land was donated by the king of Banaras and other people. He remained VC of BHU till 1936.He was also the chief Editor ofHHindustan Times and was responsible for its Hindi edition.
