Totally agree, We should be proud of him for the right reasons as mentioned by Mr. Deshwal in the post below and not just because he was a Jat..

Let us don't become prejudiced!!!
Dear Members,
Whether we like or don’t, the fact of the matter is that a person could be best at certain level, but might find difficult to manage the things at a higher level. There is no doubt, that Ch. Charan Singh achieved, what other Jat leaders could not, but to single out him for this achievement to greatness would be gross injustice to others. If we talk about a farmer’s son reaching to that level, than he is not alone. Mr. Devegowada comes from the similar back ground, and with India being the country of farmers (people other than Jat community also do farming), then many leaders from that back ground have risen in public life.
I agree with some of the members, about the books written by Ch. Sahab, but then at national level you don’t lead only the farmers. It is easy for us to criticize what these leaders did not do at the time they were in power, but, we might have performed extremely poorly if we were in their place. Analysis of performance after the event is much easier, then taking the decisions before the events. But that should not lead to getting away from the analysis. It is the defeat in a battle that teaches more lessons than the victory, so long one is bold enough to analyze the reasons for defeat and prepared to accept the accountability.
We should feel proud of Ch. Charan Singh achievements, but should be able to analyze and even criticize what he did not achieve. Negotiating skills are some of the most important skills, at higher levels as they become more complicated and a good leader should be able to come out as a winner in those situations. Now many people say that he did not compromise on his principles, but that may not be true. The reason, he always criticize the Nehru family in general and Mrs. Indira Gandhi in particular, but to get to the “Red Fort” he patched up with the same foe. I think getting the patch up was right move, but maintaining it would have been better. In the higher game, whether at national level or at international level, there is always give and take game. You win something and you lose something. One needs to be gracious in victory and pleasant in defeat. Our discussions and views can be extremely effective if they concentrate on the issues rather than the personalities. If we follow the same yardsticks to judge people, whether they are Jats or no Jats, or whether they belong to the political party of your choice of opposition, we might bring out some exceptional points for future generation. Remember, what we are writing today, will be read by our future generations, and if we don’t bring out the facts without garnishing them to suit our choices and preferences, then it will be similar to indoctrination.
