New Delhi: BJP General Secretary Pramod Mahajan breathed his last on Wednesday afternoon after a 12-day battle for life at P D Hinduja Hospital in Mumbai.
The untimely demise of the former Union minister not only created a shock wave in political circles but also caught astrologers on the wrong foot.
A leading South Indian astrologer, K Gopalakrishnan, had predicted that Mahajan would don the mantle of presidency or prime ministership after the year 2009.
Gopalakrishnan had said, "Pramod Mahajan will continue to be successful in Indian politics, and will get elected once again."
"He has very good chances of holding the highest post in Indian polity - like Prime Minister or the President."
"Mahajan's powerful Mercury Maha Dasa is unfolding from 2009, which will give him a great lift in BJP."
Another astrologer, Dr Prem Kumar Sharma, had predicted that Mahajan had chances of occupying a "good office" in 2007 despite fluctuating fortunes till December 2006.
"It was that Rahu from 18-02-2004 to 26-12-2006 would be a period of mixed fortunes. This is in 11th house and under aspect of Jupiter it is propitious but in Navamsa it is in 9th house and thus not poised for as good result as in 11th house."
"But this period would lay foundation for him to occupy a good office in the years 2007 to 2013 during these years he would be running Saturn-Jupiter, Merc-Merc, Merc-Ketu, Merc-Ven (1/3)," Sharma had said.
Besides the astrologers, former PM Atal Behari Vajpayee had added his own twist when he endorsed Mahajan as a future leader of the country.
At a public speech, Vajpayee had enigmatically said that Mahajan and Advani would continue to "lead the party".
