Off
all the days that India celebrates, Children’s day is the most horrible since
it stretches the limits of sanity to find links between children and a former
politician of India; Jawahar Lal Nehru (JLN).
Since
school days / childhood; our children are brainwashed by the Congress Party of
India that somehow, 'children’s day' is meaningful because JLN “loved children”
or because “he spent time with kids on his birthday”. The myth of ‘Chacha Nehru
- the infallible”; had been fine-tuned by the Congress for almost 50 years;
prior to the advent of the internet and the social media. Till date, there has
not been one, not even one; recorded instant of JLN’s efforts to help any
child, much less all children of India.
But,
this is how myths about political families are invented and circulated. Today, JLN’s
myths have crumbled into dust and garbage; but it has not affected the
shameless attitude of JLN’s decedents who keep on merrily and shamelessly
repeating the lies of his greatness.
Due
to the unrestricted internet, most of the world knows that JLN was a vain,
intolerant, megalomaniac whose only claim to fame was his affair with Lady
Edwina Mountbatten and his subversive politics that almost ruined the Nation.
JLN lost a war with China while he was Prime Minister and ruined the economy of
India with his socialist outlook. JLN destroyed inner - party democracy by
favoring his daughter Indira as his heir – apparent to his political legacy and
this tradition continues to this day in the Congress party.
The
so-called ‘champion of democracy’ wrote the following about himself in third
person; in a Calcutta journal in November 1937.
“…he has all the makings of a dictator in
him—vast popularity, a strong will, energy, pride…and with all his love of the
crowd, an intolerance of others and a certain contempt for the weak and
inefficient….in normal times, he would just be an efficient…executive, but in
this revolutionary epoch, Caesarism is always at the door, and is it not
possible that Jawaharlal might fancy himself a Caesar? Therein lies the danger
for Jawaharlal and India.”
[Nehru: A Political Biography, M. Edwardes
pg 245]
As
the Prime Minister of India; JLN was convinced that he had the absolute answers
for everything. The only dissent that he listened to was from the Communists,
and that too, only if his ‘absolute power’ remained unchallenged.
When
Kerala State; constitutionally elected its first non-congress government, JLN
had it dismissed immediately. In this process he ensured that the office of the
Governor of Kerala was misused and abused.
The
fact that has been hidden for 50 years since Independence is that JLN was never
elected as the first Prime Minister of India. He was in-fact thrust upon the country by Mohandas K. Gandhi (the
Mahatma); while the most popular leader of pre-independence India was Sardar
Vallabhbhai Patel.
As
long as Patel was alive, JLN was restricted by his fear for Patel’s popularity
with the masses; but Patel’s death was a bonanza for JLN and he went amuck with
fanciful whims that were dutifully noted by the Congress party as JLN’s
visions; each of which lead the country to a series of disasters.
Every stupid utterance and every
Himalayan blunder that Nehru made can be traced back to his inherently weak and
inferior personality. He needed strong men around him.
The record of what he did when he was left to his own devices is well-known.
Two examples suffice. The mammoth and near-impossible task of integrating
570-odd Princely States into the (new) Indian Union was accomplished by Sardar
Patel as if it was child’s play. Equally, the Junagarh and Hyderabad problems
were resolved in no time. But the moment JLN’s
hands touched Kashmir, it blew up in his face and remains a festering sore even
today.
Throughout
his pre-Independence career, JLN was a comprehensive disaster in domestic
affairs. Not merely because his stupidity was challenged by other sensible
leaders; but because he never cared to understand his own nation and/or its
people. Where he was concerned, the unwashed masses of India were all kaminey.
Nehru went abroad frequently to escape humiliation within the Congress
party because it paid no heed to his socialist fantasies and his thoughtless
utterances on international affairs.
In
his lifetime JLN laid a very strong foundation for continual national disaster.
His words were always contrary to his actions. When JLN said ‘democracy’ it
actually meant the “Nehru Dynasty”. When he said ‘secularism’, it meant the
destruction of everything that was Hindu. When he spoke about ‘great democratic
institutions’, he meant “having total and absolute control” over those
institutions.
JLN was a mediocre politician who
got power by devious means and then surrounded himself with
small minded people (after the death of Sardar Patel) so that JLN’s power would
remain unchallenged. In short, he did not care about the growth and progress of
the Nation as long as he was in power and enjoyed it unchallenged.
This being the real legacy of JLN;
would you now allow your child or children to be influenced by a known weak
person who was morally corrupt, intolerant of democracy, destroyed Institutions
for personal gain and whose megalomania lead to the Nation’s defeat at war with
China and who legacy is the Nehru – Gandhi family of corrupt people who have
looted our treasury and destroyed democracy?
Therefore,
any connection of JLN to “children’s day” is nothing more than a political
objective of a morally bankrupt party without any self respect.
JAI
HIND !
