Veteran Bharatiya Janata Party leader Lal Krishna Advani who passed through various levels and even served as the Deputy Prime Minister of India was picked for the prestigious Bharat Ratna, the highest civilian award of the country. Wishes have been pouring in from various corners for the senior politician.

LK Advani, one of the founders of the BJP is often credited for giving a big breather to the party in the crucial moment. He should be seen as the main force behind the BJP getting strong and emerging as a strong party. Congress dominated the landscape over the decades.

During the same period, LK Advani established the BJP as the second-largest party in terms of winning seats. He paved the way for the party to grow and reach the current position it is enjoying now.

The Rath Yatra LK Advani carried out gave the required mileage for the party. The yatras he held saw big crowds thanks to his energetic speeches. His hard work and adding fuel to the Ram Janmabhoomi movement can be seen as game-changing decisions as far as the party is concerned.

BJP once had just two MP seats in hand. Cut to a few years later, LK Advani made the party the second largest in the country in the 1991 general elections. We cannot unsee the role LK Advani played in creating a big path for the BJP to flourish.

His stand on the Ram Janmabhoomi issue even made him face a case and go to jail. The Chief Minister took a strong note of the Yatra and filed a few cases. LK Advani is among the leaders who were arrested. Many say that he also sacrificed his political career for the Yatras which helped the BJP to grow further.
