In many walks of life, we come across people who are leaders, mentors or are one amongst the most respected lot and yet they do not get coronated to the coveted positions.
However, their contribution, dedication and the place they earn in people’s hearts is remembered for years across generations.
Such stalwarts are rare and Sushma Swaraj probably will always be there at the top for her ‘Rashtrabhakti’ and affability towards the people of this great nation, ‘India’.
Democracies are not built by independence but by the people who leave the lure of power and remain part of an ideology till the ultimate goal is achieved. An orator at par and friends across all parties would have easily made Sushma remain in power all through her life, albeit she chose to be in opposition for most of her career and that’s what differentiates her with others who switch parties and make headlines especially during any election fever.
One of the youngest minister in Haryana Government to India’s most beloved Foreign Minister, Sushma made mark in all the roles she performed.
Sushma chose the eternal journey so soon after her successor in Delhi, Shiela Dixit left for heavenly abode but the sequence reversed. I still remember Sheila Dixit sitting next to Sushma, the day later became the Chief Minister of Delhi and beaming with joy for her friend Sushma. That was the camaraderie she shared with Dixit and leaders of opposition parties though being poles apart in their ideologies.
Irony of democracy made Sushma lose the power to Sheila and not because of the policies or politics. It were those costly onions who tilted the favour against Sushma and Delhi might have lost one of the most deserving Chief Ministers ever to rule.
Nonetheless, Sushma being as Swaraj as name, was always one of those outspoken and real trouble shooters for the party. Those who heard her speeches in Parliament especially during the fall of that 13 days Government of Ataljee would agree for them being a BJP supporter due to ‘Sushmavachan’.
Her functioning as minister in the successive BJP governments of Vajpayee and Narendra Modi made people come across an ideal minister whom they always missed in any government.
A firebrand leader who took on Soniya Gandhi in Bellary to one of the most affable leaders of all times, also faced few unwarranted controversies especially during LalitGate and one must say, we as people or the politicians must be responsible enough to get to the root of any issue and then make a statement.
Her health and her troubles with mobility made her sit out of 2019 Modi Sarkar but Sushma being Sushma probably chose to leave forever rather than leading a retired life.
Article 370, which was close to many people and always top of her Party’s agenda was the day she chose to leave us but not before patting the current government and celebrating the victory of democracy till her last breath.
Sushma Swaraj will always be remembered as an all-time great and one who made a difference to India so we can be ready to usher a new era in ‘New India’.
RIP Sushma Swaraj 🙇♂️ 🙇♂️ 🙇♀️ 🙇♀️
