Prime Minister Narendra Modi on July 6 paid his tributes to BJP's founding ideologue Syama Prasad Mookerjee on his birth anniversary, saying he dedicated his life to the making of a strong India.
In a tweet, Mr. Modi described Mookerjee, a Minister in independent India's first government, as a great nationalist thinker and educationist who founded the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, the forerunner to the Bharatiya Janata Party.
His ideals and principles will inspire every generation in the country, he said.
