生平 
1996年大選後他擊敗印度國大黨，首次成為總理，但是因为在國會未能取得多數支持，內閣僅十五天便倒台。其後他領導的印度人民黨於1998年的大選取得勝利，同年3月19日再次就任印度总理。1999年大選中，聯合其他政黨聯盟取得国会多數，他領導的政黨聯盟成為首個完成任期的非國大黨政府。

巴基斯坦於1998年5月28日因應印度進行核子試爆後，為使印巴關係正常化，他於1999年由巴士穿越瓦嘎邊境訪問拉合爾而達到高潮。巴基斯坦總理納瓦茲·謝里夫在瓦嘎邊境與他會面，兩位領導人並簽署了聯合公報，即知名的《拉合爾宣言》。《拉合爾宣言》闡明兩國為了實現印巴關係正常化所必須要採取的各項步驟。

2004年人民黨領導的政黨聯盟在大選中落敗，瓦杰帕伊於5月22日辭去總理一職。

2018年6月，瓦杰帕伊因为泌尿系统疾病被全印医学科学研究院收治，最终于8月16日去世，享壽93岁。瓦杰帕伊的遺體於Sadaiv Atal火化，骨灰從赫爾德瓦爾處撒入恆河。

瓦杰帕伊終身未婚，有一名養女。
