An exhibition on the life and achievements of BJP's veteran leader, former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, has been put up at the venue of the party's three-day State executive meet which began here on Thursday.
Though the 88-year-old leader's frail health has restricted him from attending the meet at his birthplace here, his presence has been ensured by way of the exhibition titled 'Atal Bihari Vajpayeeji ke Vyaktitva ki Chitramay Pradarshini'.
The leader's birth place 'Krishna Kripa' here is now converted into a library in the memory of his parents Krishna Devi and Krishna Bihari Vajpayee. The exhibition highlights Vajpayee's achievements right from his formative years and is a tell tale of BJP's political success - from just two seats in 1984 to the party's coming to power at the Centre.
“The exhibition has a collection of Atalji's rare photographs collected by 'Atal Samagra', to showcase the achievements of the poet-turned-politician for inspiring younger generation," BJP investor cell's co-convenor, Shailendra Sharma said.
It also showcases Vajapayee's political journey from Jansangh to taking oath as Foreign Minister and then as the Prime Minister, first for a short stint of 13 days, 13 months and later for the full five-year-term.
