Bharat Ratna and former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji’s body was given fire by his adoptive daughter Namita Bhattacharya. His husband was also present at the funeral with Namita. Though the life of Atal ji, who rules the hearts of people, seems to be an open book, there are many such secrets related to his life, which very few people know.

Atal ji’s native village was in UP’s Bateshwar. He was born on 25 December 1924 in Gwalior. From here, he had studied from the Victoria College. The life of Atal ji spent between politics, poetry, and simplicity.

A question related to the life of Atal ji is such that no one knows the exact answer and the concrete reason. The question is, why did Atal Bihari Vajpayee never marry? When asked about his reason behind staying unmarried by the Opposition, he had said with great fervor, “I am unmarried, but not a bachelor.”

Atal Bihari, when asked about the reason for not marrying, he replied in a very calm and symmetrical way, “It was not possible due to the politic career.” Every time when he said this, he gently used to smile. His close friends believed that he had decided to stay single for Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh.

In his college days, a princess used to be Atal ji’s female friend whom he loved, who was with Atal ji till her last time. Both were classmates at Victoria College (Laxmibai College) of Gwalior. In the book ‘Atal Bihari Vajpayee: A Man of All Seasons’ written on Atal ji, this incident is mentioned.

The morality of Atal ji’s friendship was such that the husband of Princess had no objection to this. Princess had once given interviews to a magazine in the 80’s. In this, she had said, ‘I never had to explain to my husband about my relationship with Atal. Our relationship was strong at the level of understanding.

Namita Bhattacharya was actually the adopted daughter of Atal Bihari Vajpayee. In many secrets of his life, one of the unknown facts is his daughter. Yes, so far people only knew that Atal ji did not get married. But no one knows that he had a daughter too.

At the time when Atal ji was elected as PM of India, princess along with her daughter Namita and her son-in-law Ranjan Bhattacharya was living at his Government Residence. At that time, Atalji had given Namita status of her adopted daughter and the princess’ family used to supervise him when he was ill. Atal Bihari Vajpayee did not get married, but Namita Bhattacharya is his daughter.

Namita is married to Ranjan Bhattacharya, who also worked as an OSD, while her father-in-law Atalji was the Prime Minister of India, the couple has a daughter named Niharika.

The relationship between the princess’ family and Vajpayee is very old and after the death of princess’ husband, Vajpayee became an integral and inseparable part of her house.
