Nehruvian Economics, its Consequences

By R. Chandra Prakash
Those who fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it.—Winston Churchill
Nehru was an honourable man. He was also a learned person, an intellectual and a great patriot. No one can question his integrity and nationalism. His overall contributions to the nation-building has to be recognised.
However, these qualities and contributions cannot be a cover for his actions which in retrospect have been highly detrimental to a free Bharat. Because, no leader, however great he might be, can be more important than the Nation. History warns us not to repeat same mistakes because the consequences could be devastating. It is in this context that Churchill’s above quote becomes relevant.
