Vajpayee's body being taken to his residence, people can pay last respects: Rajnath
Home Minister Rajnath Singh told the reporters "Vajpayeeji's body has been taken to his residence where people can pay their last respect,"
Rajnath Singh describes the death of former prime minister's death as a "huge personal loss." He further said that he is in pain beyond words at the demise of Vajpayee, who had cherished the idea of a developed and powerful India.
"In Atalji's demise the nation has lost a stalwart who was known for statesmanship and astute leadership.
