Addressing the gathering, Dr. Saha hailed Vajpayee as a visionary leader, a statesman of towering stature, and a guiding light for generations of political leaders. “Atal ji was not just a politician — he was a symbol of dedication, integrity, and nation-first thinking. I urge everyone to walk the path of public welfare and national service that he championed, and to keep his ideals alive through our actions,” the Chief Minister said.
The event witnessed the presence of several senior leaders of the party, including Rajya Sabha MP and Tripura BJP President Rajib Bhattacharjee, who also offered floral tributes and shared fond memories of Vajpayee’s enduring legacy.

Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who served three terms as Prime Minister and was the first national president of the BJP, is remembered not only for his political acumen but also for his poetic eloquence and inclusive approach to governance. His legacy continues to inspire leaders and citizens alike.
