The Time Nehru Cried.

Jawaharlal Nehru was so taken aback by the Chinese aggression in 1962 that he was driven to tears while speaking on All India Radio: "My heart goes out to the people of Assam" he said. Nehru's words conveyed the impression that Assam was lost. In Hindi, Image
he said: "Assam khatremeinhai."

After reading this for a moment, I too felt sad for him..
Jawahar had no Intelligence of his own, infact Jawahar had 3 guides in his life
1) Motilal Nehru 2) MK Gandhi 3) Krishna Menon.

It was Motilal who pitched Jawahar to Congress President
post and sent a letter requesting Gandhi to lead him.
Motilal also took Jawahar to Russia, introduced him to Socialism, the hospitality received by Lenin made young Jawahar forget about the genocide of Russia's peasants.

वो सुबह फिर तो आएगी
4 अप्रेल 1968 की घटना है मार्टिन लूथर किंग जूनियर की महज 39 वर्ष की उम्र में हत्या हो गई थी पूरे अमेरिका में शोक की लहर थी इस खबर से गोरे और काले लोगो के बीच बरसो से चली आ रही तनातनी और उग्र हो गई थी पूरा अमेरिका बारूद के ढेर पर बैठा था..दंगे शुरू हो गए थे ImageImage
फिर अचानक से राष्ट्रपति पद के उम्मीदवार रॉबर्ट केनेडी एक ट्रक की छत पर चढ़कर दंगों के बीच काले लोगो की बस्ती मैं जाकर घोषणा करते है “आज मैंने अपने दूसरे भाई को खोया है। उसी तरह खोया है। उसी लड़ाई में खोया है। मैं आपके साथ बैठ रोने आया हूँ। #RobertFkenneddy #JawaharlalNehruJi Image

We have grown up believing that Children's Day was celebrated in India on 14th November, which is Jawaharlal Nehru's birthday, only after Pandit Nehru passed away. But this is a lie, unfortunately, propagated each year by the mainstream media...
#ChildrensDay
#JawaharlalNehru
It is often assumed that Children’s day, which is celebrated on 14th November every year, is a tribute to our first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. The popular narrative is that Children’s Day started being celebrated on his birthday day after Nehru’s death to honour him..
because he loved children ...seriously??🤔😂.. This is ridiculous..What is his contribution especially to children??🤔..In India, much like other countries,Children’s Day was celebrated on Nov.20,that is the Universal Children’s Day as declared by the United Nation

" Long years ago... we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially.

A moment comes, which comes, but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance.

" When I talk about an independent foreign policy for India, other people talk about the neutral attitude of India. I object to the word "neutral" . We are not neutral. We have positive ideas .

When we talk of an independent foreign policy for India, some countries criticize it and do not understand it. They ask " what is this"? Yet, in the final analysis, what does an independent policy for India mean?

(2/n).
It means refusal to be pushed about by others this way or that way. It means deciding what you want to do yourself. You may decide in favour of cooperating with this person or that person,

" If you go to Kashmir, you will find an extremely beautiful tree called the chinar. Now you cannot grow the chinar in Delhi. However much you may try, there is no way of growing it in any other part of India.

" In the ancient times, India became great because our ancestors kept their minds open to new ideas and to all new developments in the outside world and showed adventurous spirit when they undertook perilous voyages across the high seas and cultivated great minds.

In later period, that spirit almost disappeared and India degenerated because she lost contacts with outside world, while internal quarrels weakened the nation marking her a prey to foreign aggression.

Modern India should derive inspiration from our ancient history as well as learn lessons from the world outside. We cannot grow by closing our doors and shutting ourselves in dark cells. "__ Jawaharlal Nehru.

" People talk about a secular State. Some think about it as a silly word and yet, what we simply mean by it is to have a normal and a civilized country. The communal idea is synonymous with an uncivilized idea. It is a primitive idea, a vulgar and a childish idea.

(1/n).
It does not matter where it exists, whether in the mind of a Hindu, a Muslim, a Sikh, a Parsi or a Christian. It may be in anybody's mind. If it is there, it shows an uncivilized thinking.

(2/n).
Therefore, if you are to go ahead, you have to get rid of this narrowness of outlook and thinking, which prevents our growth. 

Now, it is obvious enough that this narrowness of outlook has been one of the major weakening factors in India.

that we must always pursue peaceful and good methods, that even a good objective does not entitle us to use bad methods. So we have held aloft this torch of freedom and the torch of peace.
