RGupta Ramesh Biography of Jawahar Lal Nehru English Medium

There are a lot of things to know about Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India and father of Indira Gandhi. The book covers all the aspects of Nehru’s intellectual and political life - including his close relationship with Mahatma Gandhi, his English education, and the years of periodic and sometimes prolonged imprisonment. The book describes Nehru’s rise to the presidency of India’s National Congress, revealing how his radical ideas and fearless leadership of Congress’s left wing soon won him the martyrdom of long years behind British bars for conducting civil disobedience campaigns. After his release in 1945, Nehru met Lord Mountbatten, with whom he was destined to negotiate the independence and partition of British India into the nation states of India and Pakistan in 1947.
