Jawaharlal Nehru was popularly known as Chacha Nehru in India. Jawaharlal Nehru loved children of his nation and wished that they should shine like the twinkling stars of the sky and rise to lofty heights.
This great dreamer of India was born on 14th November 1889 in Allahabad (U.P.). His birthday is celebrated as Children’s Day all over India. Jawaharlal Nehru was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He has all the luxuries of the world at his feet. His father Motilal Nehru appointed highly experienced teachers to teach him.
Jawaharlal was not allowed to take anything without permission in the house. One day, Nehru took his father’s pen by mistake and got thrashed by his father for taking the pen. But Jawaharlal loved his father, as he knew his father too loved him, thus he ignored his father’s thrashing and carried on with his life. Motilal Nehru appointed teachers to teach him swimming and horse riding. Best tutors were kept to develop his personality and impart values of life, so that he could become one of the esteemed citizens of his country.
Jawaharlal was married to Kamla Kaul on 8th February 1916. In the year 1917, he gave birth to the nation’s blooming flower Indira Priyadarshini.
Nehru received his education in England, where he attained the degree in law, and thereafter returned back to India.
Jawaharlal joined politics along with his father and thereafter went numerous times to jail for giving speeches and protesting against the British rule. Nehru wrote letters to his daughter Indira from the jail and taught her the values of life through these letters.
Jawaharlal was a great dreamer. He wanted to dominate the curse of poverty, ignorance, unemployment and disease from the root. He didn’t want to rest till his last breath. He wanted to toil day and night to keep the flag of his country high.
Jawaharlal left for heavenly abode on 27th May 1964 at the age of 75. His last written lines were :
The woods are lovely, dark and deep and miles to go before I sleep.
Jawaharlal Nehru died after writing these lines created by Robert Forest.
Jawaharlal Nehru may not be in between us today, but his gem of a person shall be remembered till the annihilation of the world.
