Dr. Murli Manohar Joshi reeks of decency when he speaks his high-brow mind.  He is a thinking leader, who infused his mallow wisdom into the strategies for developing human resources during his stint as Union HRD minister in NDA government led by Atal Bihari Vajpayee, a towering visionary, whose approach to development is second to none.

   Joshi is a proponent of Self Reliant Development Model along with his innate love for the rich cultural heritage of India. He professed a nuclear India. An acclaimed Parliamentarian and fastidious academician, he addressed several conferences on Self Reliant Development Model throughout the country. Today, Dr. Joshi has come to epitomize the resurgent India's yearning for self-assertion. He is an ardent advocate of a non-exploitive, egalitarian world order. One is struck by the basic continuity and consistency of Dr. Joshi's approach to politics and to life over the past half a century.
