तुर्क प्रधानमंत्री भागवत गीता का भक्त ,7 ऐसी नामचीन हस्तियां

Bulent Ecevit, five times Turkish prime minister and a key political player for almost half a century died on 5 November, 2006, aged 81 after a long illness. Apart from 1974, he was twice premier; from 1977 to 1979, with his last stint from 1999-2002. Representing the coal miners of Black Sea coast town of Zonguldak, as labour minister he gave the Turkish workers the right to strike for the first time in Turkish history.

Ecevit was also a poet, and had also worked as a journalist.

In 1974, on a visit to London from Paris, I switched on the BBC Television and saw Ecevit, then premier for the first time,who had just sent the Turkish troops to Cyprus, where they still stay put, being interviewed. When asked what gave him the courage to send in the troops, which many other Turkish Premiers in the past would have liked to do but dared not. Apart from other reasons he said that he was encouraged by the teachings of Bhagavad-Gita; if one was morally in a correct position, one should not hesitate to fight injustice against mighty and even against ones near and dear ones. Earlier I had read an interview in the International Herald Tribune, in which the interviewer remarked on the books in Ecevit’s library and among others, he prominently pointed out the Bhagvad-Gita and Nehru’s Glimpses of World History, which Ecevit said had affected him profoundly.
Ecevit mentioned Bhagvad-Gita again when I recalled his defeating the legendary and venerable leader Ismet Inonu (who warned Nehru during his 1960 visit to Turkey, not to trust Communists aka China and against opposition sent some mountainguns to India after 1962) in the contest for party leadership in 1972. Inonu was the right hand man of Kemal Ataturk, Turkey’s liberator, founder and moderniser. Inonu became Turkey’s president after Ataturk’ death in 1938 (and earlier was most of the time prime minister) and adroitly kept Turkey out of the Second World War. He played a vital role in Turkey’s transition from one party rule to multi party democracy in late 1940s.
