Prime Minister Narendra Modi honored former Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru on his death anniversary. Nehru, born in Allahabad on November 14, 1889, pursued his education in England and later became actively involved in India’s freedom movement. Nehru’s leadership in the Indian National Congress marked significant milestones towards independence, including the adoption of complete independence as the ultimate goal.
Jawaharlal Nehru’s contributions extended to various international platforms, where he advocated for India’s independence. He faced multiple imprisonments for his participation in movements like the Salt Satyagraha. Nehru’s dedication to India’s freedom struggle led to his arrest during the Quit India Movement, emphasizing his commitment to the nation’s sovereignty. His legacy continues through initiatives like Children’s Day, celebrated annually in India on his birthday.
