Had a comment left on my site where I have some scans of photos taken by my grandad when he was stationed out in Singapore during and after World War II. I hadn't realised until the comment pointed it out that he was clearly there when Indian Nationalist leader Nehru came to visit and inspect the troops, making this 1946.

Subramanian Swamy questions Nehru’s role in Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose’s death, citing evidence from Nehru’s private secretary. The comments come as Bose’s daughter, Anita Bose Pfaff, urges India to repatriate her father’s ashes from Japan. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/india/subhas-chandra-bose-death-subramanian-swamy-nehru-role-controversy-ope9maoc?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #SubhasChandraBose #Netaji #SubramanianSwamy #Nehru

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1961 war officially broke out between #India and #Portugal. For 451 years #Goa had been a Portuguese colony, so the day Indian soldiers advanced into it is remembered as an invasion, but in the #anticolonial thinking of #Nehru it began a liberation fight.

A fact-check of JP Nadda’s claim that Nehru opposed parts of Vande Mataram, with CWC 1937 records, Nehru’s letters, and documents shared by Jairam Ramesh. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/india/did-nehru-say-vande-mataram-had-too-many-difficult-words-fact-checking-naddas-claim-ydos2onn?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #JPNadda #Nehru #LatestNews #India #CWC

In 1510 on #ThisDayInHistory, #Portugal conquered the #Goa region from the Sultanate of Bijapur. They held the territory for 451 years, losing it only in 1961 when #Nehru's #anticolonial forces seized it for #India. Goa, still culturally distinct, is now India's smallest state.

Today we celebrate #Ambedkar who "understood with piercing clarity the dangers posed by religious majoritarianism and upper-caste dominance. Unlike his contemporaries ( #Gandhi , #Nehru), who placed their faith in moral appeals or modernisation, Ambedkar insisted on enforceable constitutional safeguards and institutional protections. He was unsparing in his critique — not only of Hindu orthodoxy - but also of nationalist icons who ignored the plight of the oppressed."

@Lana That’s always the problem with mass protests. #Nehru knew that already

>> #NAM Non-alignment, initially a posture of neutrality during the #ColdWar, evolved into implicit support for the #USSR. This movement, born from the desire … not to align themselves with the blocs, was influenced by leaders such as [#India's] #Nehru and [#Egypt's] #Nasser.

Also #Yugoslavia's Josip Broz #Tito, who served as the leader of the #NonAlignedMovement.

#US doctrine was same during Cold War as it was with #GeorgeWBush: "You're either with us or with #terrorists"

The bankruptcy of 40,943 companies is a sign of policy failure. #Nehru's policies were old, but #Modi government's #demonetisation, #GST and COVID-19 management worsened the situation. The question is not of responsibility, but of solution.

I thought of this one because I'm lecturing on India to-day: In 1510 on #ThisDayInHistory the Portuguese conquered the #Goa region from the Sultanate of Bijapur. They held the territory for 451 years, losing it only in 1961 when #Nehru's anticolonial forces seized it for India.

#Nehru the man who took care of the newly independent country India. Who laid down the foundation of all the institutions that exist in India today. Whose wide vision made India what it is today. And also the irony of a country which is ready to forget its most finest leader just 5 decades after he is gone. Someday we will lose what is valuable and then only know how valuable it was. Happy birthday Nehru ji
