I guess despite saving country's prestige, Lal Bahadur got the worst treatment by Congress. What a shame, these lackeys continued to rule us despite these grave insults to hero of the nation
When he died there was a strong resistance against his cremation in the area where Gandhi and Nehru had been laid to rest. Most Congressmen wanted his body taken to Allahabad. When Mrs Lalita Shastri said she would go public only then did the Congressmen relent.
They even protested against inscribing the slogan -- Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan on his samadhi. Then again, only when Mrs Shastri threatened to go on a hunger strike was it was allowed.This level of aspiration of destroying the legacy of someone unwanted is only matched by Islamic invaders as per my understanding.
They have no regard to the gravity of the situation. This little guy gave you victory and peace as per our terms and died most probably only because he dared to have nuclear capability for the country (Killed by CIA)
When Indira Gandhi visited Shastri's residence to find out if she can live there as PM of India, this is what she said:
During Shastri's tenure his home in Janpath was upgraded quite a bit to suit the status of a PM.
After his death, while searching for a suitable home Mrs Gandhi went to see Shastri's home. She entered the home, had a round inside and said, "middle class!"When half of the country starved, when other half fasted for a day to observe austerity, she hated Middle class
The patriotism ran in family
Later, we discovered that Shastri spoke to his family in Delhi every day. That evening, he had called Delhi and asked for Ammaji, his wife Lalita. His daughter came on the line. It is said his daughter said, "Amma won't come on the line. You have given away Haji Pir and Tithwa."Like a sad and tragic end, they never got to talk to each other again.
