Vajpayee Never Compromised on the Ideology of the Party: PM Modi
“Atal Ji wanted democracy to be supreme. He built the Jana Sangh. But, when the time came to rescue our democracy he and others went to Janata Party. Likewise, when the choice was between remaining in power or comprising on ideology, he left Janata Party and formed the BJP.”

He also said that while for some, power is oxygen and they cannot live without it, Vajpayee spent a long part of his career in the Opposition benches raising issues of national interest.
PM Modi also stated that the late prime minister never compromised on the ideology of the party.
Modi said Vajpayee as a speaker was unparalleled, "When he spoke, the nation spoke... when he spoke the nation listened.”
