Today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi released a Rs 100 coin in the memory of Atal Bihari Vajpayee. From the time of introduction of Indian currency, our currency has seen many changes. From time to time, our governments release such coins to celebrate the contribution of eminent personalities in shaping India. Atal Bihari Vajpayee was also one such leader who was loved by all people. During his life, Vajpayee lived a simple life and never indulged in any kind of corruption during his career. It is quite difficult to find such leaders who put their country ahead of their own self.
The main features of this coin are an emblem of India on one side and portrait of Atal Bihari Vajpayee on the other side. Tomorrow is the birthday of Late Vajpayee and this coin is released just one day before his birthday. It is a commemorative coin and will be available in limited edition. Vajpayee is the one leader who did great work in shaping today's BJP. Today, BJP has emerged as a biggest political party in India only because of the efforts of Vajpayee. There are still many people in India who love and respect him.
I am also a fan of him and I was one of the happiest persons in the world when he becomes Indian Prime Minister. Though, he is no more with us today; however, he has left behind his footsteps for many news leaders of India to follow. I do want that we should get more leaders like him so that India can emerge as a great leader in the world. His messages of love and peace will be always remembered across the world.
