India has faced a great loss today. Our former Prime minister Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee is no more. He was a great man and at the same time he was also a great politician. I'm sad about the big loss.

He was the one of his own kind. It is an end of an era and I see no one tall enough to carry forward his legacy.

@amitkokiladitya I had a chance to listen to him during our college days when he came on 100th anniversary of our HIndu College and released a postal stamp to honor our college. It was a life changing experience. So inspirational!! He was an unmatched orator.

@amitkokiladitya He deserved it.A great leader with a lion's heart, far sighted,broad mind,a great and sensitive poet and a mesmerising orator - he deserved the country's respect. Atalji's demise is a great loss for our country.

I was glued to the tv yesterday listening to the praises showered on him almost hinting that our present PM should follow him when it came to not using a language that hurts.
