He was rumoured to be the next BJP president. this is going to be a huge loss for the party :( Only 2 weeks ago I was watching at interview of his with Karan Thapar
To those who aren't familiar with Pramod Mahajan, he is considered one of the most important political individuals in India in the current opposition. He held important offices in the NDA government.

You are a Brigadier of the IA. You underwent rigorous physical training and presided over deadly terrorist insurgencies, many a time with the terrain being mine infested.
Such physical and mental toughness, I'm afraid, is the privilege of a few people such as yourself. That probably explains why you feel 'young'.
Compare that with our politicians, who are but the mascots of couch-potatoes. I'm not even debating the testosterone levels of a 60 year old male politician in India ! ;)
And you are right, it is all because of the Indian Army!

While there's love in your heart,
Time will silver your golden hair,
As you rock in your old rocking chair,
but you will never grow old"

Well.. I wont be shedding a tear.
People die and so must politicians. Far better people have died in more unfortunate circumsatnces without creating a ripple.
All that I can figure is that he recieved far more attention than was justified simply because he belonged to a class of VIP people called politcians.
I am sure he was a good man in his personal life, but by default I would have to assume he shared the same qualities as his ilk.
The man was pretty media-savvy though.That cant be said of many of the current gen of politicians.
One of the most corrupt politician. He has 80+ Lacs BMW X5.
Well.. he had something to do with Reliance? shareholder? Dunno. He isn't as rich as some of our politicians are and really has no corruption scandal behind him..
So dun know how u call him the most corrupt.. Becuase he certainly wasnt
I feel this has been a waste. If Pramod had lived.. he would have definately taken over the BJP as president within a few years..
I have great respect for Vajpayee.. And Vajpayee was very close to Mahajan so my respect trickles down to him too..

Wasnt it was about some 2 crore shares?(in QTY & not value)
Same old fights...................Money, Land and Women.
My guess is that the suspicions about the woman angle are towards the truth. Brothers are known to kill each other over property only if cheated out from ancestral property. The Mahajans reportedly did not have any large ancestral property. So the property/ money motive is out - but men are known to kill for humiliation over women.
