Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat’s video message condoling death of former President Pranab Mukherjee is an indicator that another Congress leader is on the way to become part of the BJP pantheon. Earlier the BJP adopted Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the first Home Minister of independent India nd have also been soft on former Prime Minister PV Narsimha Rao. However, unlike Patel, Mukherjee leaves behind a very detailed autobiography (in three volumes) where he makes little reference to the Jana Sangh or the BJP, and whenever he does he does it wrly or critically. On the other hand he is profuse in his adulation of Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Sanjay Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi and regrets the fact that Rajiv Gandhi did not trust him in the initial years.
