There is no doubt in my mind that AB Vajpayee was a good administrator and one with good principles. However, the Bharat Ratna seems too much of an award for a politician. Furthermore, LK Advani is the wrong person to request/demand the Bharat Ratna for AB Vajpayee. He went to Pakistan and declared Jinnah a secular man. Who the hell is he to ask the respectable prime minister to give AB Vajpayee a Bharat Ratna quoting that he served well during the Kargil War. If AB Vajpayee deserves the Bharat Ratna, people would've asked for it but they haven't and rightly so. He got the Padmavibushan in '92. If necessary, Padmabushan can be awarded.
For him, rather than Bharat Ratna, I think he would rather want people to remember him as a strong prime minister and with good principles.
