Dr. Jayaprakash Narayan (JP) – an inspiration to all

Dr. Jayaprakash Narayan. Today was the first time I heard of him. Honestly. It is amazing how many intellectuals just pass us by without us even knowing they existed! I was listening to actor Siddharth, apparently his son and I found out only after I reading about JP in Wikipedia and who also has magnificent oratory skills, when he kept mentioning what a great speaker JP was. So being curious I googled JP and found these videos below. I was awestruck just listening to him. Flawless and superb fluency of his speech kept me mesmerized throughout. Him being a politician made it sweeter! I never expected it. I then looked him up in Wikipedia and found out what a great leader and human being he is.
