Oh my God..I have never ever thought that I would hear Pandit Nehrew..I have only read about these famous leaders in history..and I think everyone here is watching this for the first time like me..😃 Extremely outstanding interview..😊
@@manjunathaaladahali8105 I truly love and respect Nehru as a leader, he was one of the greatest leaders, balanced and he tried his best to bring peace to a deeply complicated and divided world. It is sad that so many young Indians today dislike him. :(
Just look at the quality of the discussion, how it includes complex philosophical ideas and compare that to what media has become today. How far we have fallen.
This is the first time ,I am watching Nehru's Interview. Thank you Doordarshan. The main relevant point he made for today's India is " I believe in Spirituality not in the institutionalisation of religion".

@@junnuravikumar The topic was about congress and Nehru. You were praising him about his spiritual viewpoint. Then why did they do Muslim appeasement politics for so long and even today they are doing to win elections ?
@@yess10 okay then fine, its just like giving candy to the smallest/crying kid. their requirements are heavy in those times. when its so easy to create another country. in the long it continued. and coming to the present days, the candy is not so big, its just safety which they needed now. Eat whatever they want and have a happy life. if you want everyone to be alike just remember the nazi's.
Rakesh Chauhan "A collection of answers in a foreign tongue , with a posh accent is sufficient for you to deduce a man's intellect " ?

Watched the great man"s interview for the first time; O what a man he was; great insight & vision; spoke so perfectly well on a variety of issues; was not shy to admit that he feels sad & lonely at times. My heart bleeds when modern day leaders try to malign his image through false propaganda
@@Sam-jf8hj The result of his dream is that an uneducated eunuch gets to boast that he took India to Mars & moon, forgetting the thousands of moments where he could claim to be a pioneer 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Moreover Chacha Nehru had the guts to face Free Press & not some bootlick 😜😜😜😜😜
This is the 1st time I watch Jawaharlal Nehru Interview came in 1958!! Golden Years in Indian Politics!! Thank you Doordarshan for this interview cum video!! Little bit emotional and even cried after watched this video, because he is not with us in today's time, when his type of leaders his ideology is very much required in today's Indian Politics!!😭😭 Kaash mere paas Time Machine hoti toh mein us time mein chala jaata!!
He was very educated and thinking politician and PM we fortunate to had... The philosophical side of Nehru tell much about him..no wonder Gandhi choose him to lead.. Man of science who had both of east and west.. Every Indian should listen to him... Thank u prasarbharti..for this gem
Rishi Chandra It is said and even testified by many,that even after establishing IIT Kgp, he kept himself abreast with even minute problems of the institution,including even the canteen issues.We can only be grateful that our nation got such visionaries,and not just him,almost every1 who helped frame our constitution.
I appreciate your gratitude and feel likewise. Pandit Nehru laid the foundation stone for my alma mater as well. (B.Tech IIT Bombay, Class of 1980.) Unfortunately, I have a feeling that most IITans of the current generation do not recognize Nehru's vision.
The last three minutes of this interview / video brought me to tears. If there was ever a heart churning, passionate appeal from a real son of India, here is one! Salute, Panditji.
Technology has a great role in our life.... because of it Today I am hearing Chacha Nehru's voice.. Thanks for scientists who had invented 📽️📽️ Thanks DD Archive for providing this Interview
After half the interview I scrolled down to see the comments section to see for myself the everpresent troll. Didn't read beyond the first ten. I was afraid I would come across one on the eleventh!! Hats off to this freedom fighter, intellectual and one who himself considered Gandhiji as his leader. And his self criticism at the beginning was an eye opener. RIP panditji.
@Trading Wizard Very well said TW. "Your dad and mom would be slaves to the Rajas and Zamindar's. ... in about 5 to 10 years you will be a slave to the Adani's and Ambani anyhow." I feel the latter coming on fast. Slaves to the new oligarchs -- who are in league with global Neoliberals led by the US.
Exactly...self criticism.... now a days beat that ... NO CRITICISM BY ANYONE is in fashion.... No wonder they call him anti- national.... well he criticized the current pm (of his time )
Ikr self criticism and how he could laugh at himself. The whole give and take thing.. You reap what you sow. We as a society have lost the ability to empathize with others. People who are not even qualified to talk about Nehru call him a 'basterd' and an idiot..we sure have come a long way.
@@emotionscomeandgo he is the person who has a vision which marginalised the difference between a jamidar and a common farmer or else till you wont be able to access i ternet or else you were seen in washrooms of jamidar cleaning there washroom
Great Interview!!! Nehru greatest statesman who ever lived. Like Nehru said we are friendly with countries and their people even when we had differences in our policies because we emphasized more on Similarity, Hindus and Muslims have differences of opinions but still can be friendly with each other by emphasizing more on similarity rather than difference.
This is the great prime minister.... Really suitable for the chair... He is not reading from a pc of paper or simply shouting... Slowly but spontaneous and intelligent answers... Really great...
@Mudit Singh This is what producing CEO of Google nd many other great personality , many Nuclear projects, missiles and sending rockets to space looks like...
You foolish, keeping British ideology in your mind only judge people on the basis of how he looks and how he speaks but never care about the inner thought and his work. Nehru was a half Indian.
First time iam hearing Nehruji voice, thank you a lot for up loading. He was a great leader and a true patriot, who had a love for every indian irrespective of creed and caste. He was way way ahead of his times. He believed in inclusion, . Todays 'popular leaders' should feel ashamed of their acts of exclusion,and division, for purpose of gaining power. God bless every one.
@darzsh Nehru was born in an extremely affluent and wealthy family, and still spent 11 years in jail for the country's freedom. He was a great patriot.
Feel fortunate to have stumbled upon this interview and this know such fine aspects of Pt. Nehru's character. What a fine speech to greet Independent India!
Every Indian should watch this interview. It gives great insight into a man's thought and beliefs who has been crucial in shaping the constitution and the country. Along with other great men. They were a different breed of men. Sadly, no one comes close to them in India anymore.

Look at the speech of a great man. The amount of knowledge, the intellect, the wit, the mind he possesses is truly amazing. He is one who made India what its today in terms of growth and prosperity. He is criticising himself though he himself was a great power then. Can anyone introspect in todays time if they have such power. Thanks to RUclips for recommending this Video. Never thought would be able to hear our first prime minister NEHRU ji's voice ever. Became instant fan of him.
Great interview with Pandit Nehru, a true visionary. Incomparable to the modern politicians. During the the interview Nehru said " what you give, what you receive, if you give hatred you will receive hatred, if you give affection, you will receive affection". This is very pertinent to present society and to our politicians.
What a gem of an interview! What a visionary! His vision and strong will continue to live in modern India in various ways. His idea of India should be spread even more. Thanks a lot Chacha Nehru!
@@aniket2703 In fact it has a very deep /profound meaning . Rigidity in thought, word and deep prevents one from introspecting and empanels disempowering beliefs thus limiting growth. It is a powerful statement of development, for self, society and the nation. Come now, surely we must not denigrate poignant observations. Especially if they strike a chord and that could be a very personal chord for the poster. Vitriol aside -Live and let learn and live.
Such honesty of purpose combined with quality of self -criticism and passion for nationbuilding made Nehru a charismatic leader. He had set model of leadership which present-day politicians find it difficult to achieve. Their poverty of creative imagination makes them petty. Kamlesh Mohan Punjab University, Chandigarh.
Even that wont help with all the filthy lies spread on Whatsapp about Nehru, See all these whatsapp university students in the comments section hating on Nehru

British left nothing except acute poverty. But still he even in the midst of deplorable situation he promoted India as an aspiring nation for the audacity of hope.
@Soham Chikte because of mixed socialist model india's middle class emerged, more jobs were created and poverty was reduced, it was the fault of some PSUs that they didn't cared much enough for production and that's why we liberalised our economy!
@@kushjindal2939 nope during Nehru's time India had 80% poverty 10% literacy His time as pm he did What was necessary Mixed economy Later Indira messed up. But Nehru was still best He hold India together and reduced poverty and increased literacy
@@kushjindal2939 Nehru did many development projects over time He is far better than Patel. Why should Nehru not be PM he contributed much in India's independence.
This was at a time when India held out promise on every front. Those were the golden years for our nascent republic. An intellectual Prime Minister with a vision and unalloyed patriotism nurturing the largest democracy with caution and optimism. He is always the first and of course the best.
@@shivsharma9153 lol. Seems like you are stupid who don't seem to know the real thing. He is the first prime minister of india means he is only one who started the development with a vision. Of course the things you said also were there but you are missing the main thing.
Today's generation will not be able to understand the value of this man....he was a man of Wisdom!! his clasic text "discovery of India" is worth reading...Under the tutelage of Mahatma Gandhi he spent 10 valuable years in jail during freedom struggle...As prime minister He build all the Democratic institutions in India....He build all the steel plants, Heavy machine industries, fertilizer factories...Green revolution took place in India after his death in 1966...Green revolution was mainly successful in Punjab & Haryana because of Bhakra Nangal damn established by Nehru in 1963...He described this dams as " temples of Modern India"...
He built extreme corruption to build the family business. Green revolution was just a paperwork. India years was for long dependent on American wheat even after so called green revolution. Nehru was responsible for ruining village employment & agriculture. Mass corruption in khadi procurement, heavy industry licensing, imports of sugar & wheat. Negligence on defence.
What a personality! So charismatic, such visionary and intellectually stimulating. I wonder whether I will get to chance to see such a PM in mylifetime
He was a corrupt socialist, his rule in India was mostly destructive to the nation as a whole, his daughter and his party was much the same and under them India saw no impressive amount of growth. His family also corrupted India. He may have been a charismatic leader but the was not a good leader.
The quality of discussion is unparalleled by today's standards. There was no corporate PR firm involved in setting up an 'image' or the interview itself. The interviewer threw critical questions at his face directly and Nehru took it with a calm demeanor which is rare today. It was just an stimulating intellectually honest discussion. I am proud to say that I am a citizen of a country whose first Prime Minister even if not perfect had these admirable traits.
Thank you DD for giving us an opportunity for introspection of what we believe the truth is based on some lies or half truth spread for petty gains in today's politics,these two interviews give us a chance to think of the turbulent time and challenges faced by our leaders.I hope people will think twice before abusing the first prime minister of our great nation.
We took nearly 30 years in ultra modern era to understand the value of institutes which he started but he had that vision 70 years ago. IIT, AIIMS ,BARC, NDA, CFTRI, DRDO, ISRO, 9 RATNA , FIVE YEARS PLAN ETC
What's the use of all this institutes if even after 70 years of independence 70 percent of Indians didn't had toilets and had to defecate in open? That thousands of poor die because of diseases related to open defecation? Don't have access to universal healthcare and house to live?
@@mass99able doesn't matter, you not replying won't affect me anyway and you having a genuine profile gives any added advantage is good for you ..carry on with your mindset for another 70 years...
India, Pakistan, Ghana, Zimbabwe, China.... All got independence almost in same decade.... Only India has democracy till now.... Just because of this great man... Salute to you
@@karnam7444 then we must consider their geopolitical situations which led to Massacre in Israel, Nuclear Blasts in Japan, Rape of Nanking, South Korea being a puppet of USA... Right?
Look at the intellect of this man. At the peak of his career, he is warning himself and others around him, that with his popularity and power, he can turn in to dictator, if not checked. When you are in so much in touch with your inner demons and understand how can it affect you, you can hardly go wrong. This anonymous piece of letter, which he wrote, is enough proof of Pandit nehru's credibility. There are some in this day and age, who wants to be Pandit nehru by wearinhg his jacket and copy his style by stuffing lotus in ther jackets, but where will they get this vision, intellect and knowledge from? Imagine writing Discovery of India, when there was no internet available?? How many books this man must have read to give us the timeline of different rulers of bygone eras? We were blessed to have chacha nehru as our first prime minister or else, this country would have doomed like pakistan, from the word go.
@Traveller897 Yet it would be evident to some that his extent of socialism was perhaps not most felicitous for India. And your comment that Nehru committed no blunders is immanently pernicious; it is the same disposition that followers of a dictator employ for their supreme leader. I would not contradict that he was indeed a towering figure, but to say he committed no blunders is hyperbolic. Bear in mind his reluctance to fund the military adequately, something no Prime Minister ought to do.
@Traveller897 This reminds me. It is beyond me why one must forget that he was instrumental in having the Intelligence Bureau snoop upon members of Subhas Chandra Bose's family -- respectable men no doubt -- and having the reports sent over to the British.
@Traveller897 Wow! You guys are totally into celebrating the absence of prescience, aren't you? After the pernicious flopshow of the Khilafat movement, anyone should have seen the Partition coming from light years away. Read Dr. Ambedkar's book _Pakistan or the Partition of India._ Their intellect notwithstanding, neither Nehru nor Gandhi nor Patel; literally no one managed to pen a counter to his phenomenal book. Mind you, he wrote his book years _before_ independence. So, while you and I may have benefit of hindsight, he did not. He had only his intellect and prescience with him. He was proven right. That they were treacherous should have been evident much prior to independence itself.
@Traveller897 Your idealism is better restricted to theory. In real life, _my enemy's enemy is my friend_ has to be applied more often than not. Hitler was Britain's enemy. Ergo, Bose saw nothing wrong in soliciting Hitler's help in raising an army. This does not indicate that he sympathized with Hitler's abhorrent policies. Anything would have been fair game for the nation's independence. Yes, Bose _IS_ a role model, because he stood for secular nationalism and envisioned a strong India. Although, I must admit his vision was too philistine in that he never had concrete ideas with regard to forging Hindu-Muslim unity. As it turns out, neither did the Congress. On this point, I shall concede benefit of hindsight. I really do not want to get personal, but while Modi's devotees are idiots, Nehru's devotees are no less. Their paradigm is so quixotic that they never make a distinction between pragmatism and idealism. To them, Nehru was no less than a godsend. How does this make Nehru's devotees any different from Modi's devotees insofar as fanaticism is concerned? Anyhow, my point was not with regard to whether Bose is a good role model. It was with regard to Nehru's scandalous snooping on Bose's family _and_ sending over reports over to the British.
@Traveller897 You drastically err in comparing the two. Bose sought help from Hitler in raising an army; he did not help him the way the U.S. helped the mujahids. Seeking help is no sin regardless of how evil the other side is. Also, I am curious why, when you insist so much on Hitler's devilry which no one must refute, you do not insist that the British Raj was as much evil if not more, and Hitler was certainly lesser of the two given that he was not the one persecuting us Indians. The British were. Bose was thus justified in seeking Hitler's help. When national independence is your ultimate goal, you do not worry about global politics; about who considers whom evil. You simply do everything in your power to gain independence, whereafter one may form a cogent foreign policy with regard to the conduct of other nations. This is common sense. Bose understood this. Also, it is a matter of national ignominy that a respectable family was not only snooped upon, but intelligence pertaining to it was _shared with the British!_ Do you understand the gravity of it all? One does NOT share intelligence with other countries pertinent even to terrorists unless other countries have a decisive threat from them. Bose's family, far from being a terrorist family, was a respectable family. You simply do not snoop on them for two decades and share intelligence with the same nation that colonized us! Why is this so difficult to understand for Nehru's cult of devotees? By the way, all of this is indeed based on proof. Were you living under a rock in 2015 when this scandal broke out? This is not how a sovereign nation conducts itself! Give me one good reason why I must not doubt whether 15 August 1947 was indeed our independence day.
He had deep Knowledge about different subjects u name it and he is ready to throw light on them. Politicians of that time were great because they all were people with great IQ. Every politician today must be well acquintad with our glaring history and efforts put down by people that time.

Then why the fuck did he choose socialism.... And fuck the entire country over for decades ???? No educated person would advocate for socialism or join the ussr instead of America.
@@emotionscomeandgo socialism was need at that time he chose socialism as well as capitalism when required ...if he had not chose socialism land reform could never took place. Jamidari and jagirdari could never be abolished ( Pakistan could not do land reform like India did , and you compare the conditions of both countries) Reality is that it is become a fashion to abuse Nehru ( although he was too idealist but gave India as much as he can)
He was the best PM in India. His visionary was different. He created a lot of jobs thru the Public Sector Units. BHEL, SAIL, ONGC .etc were the nation's pride now. He created great work to formers by constructing Irrigation Dams, IITs, IIMs AIIMS were his brainchildren. ISRO, BARC. His foreign policies were highly admirable and followed by his successors. Some flaws were also there like the Kashmir issue. A father wants to do 100% justice to his home but sometimes few may fail. We can't blame the father. We need to face it n correct it. When there is no clearcut road map, Panditji built the nation. Bharata Rata Nehru!
Wow, Seriously, The quality ,the wit.. Rather than progressing I feel today that which era are we in? I dont think we have even 1 politician of this calibre.
What a class, sophistication and style of Pt. Nehru. His way of thinking and see the body language that shrugging with his head high while speaking. Wow.. First time seeing an interview where interviewer reading from paper and P.M replying extempore. I will not compare with uneducated Modi the narcissist bcoz there is no comparison at any level.
What an uplifting, thoroughly illuminating conversation! I profoundly enjoyed watching and listening to this wonderful video that features Nehru in one of his best, reflective moments. The replies were so consistently profound and uplifting, it was fascinating.

To become dictator one needs guts & ruthlessness, he lacked either. He is both good & bad. Good he lacked ruthlessness to become a dictator and bad cause he lacked guts in taking many important decisions
People abusing him day and night must remember that he upheld democracy at a time dictatorship was so rampant in the world. It was easy and acceptable more being dictator rather democratic. He was also so popular that he could easily turn dictator and dictate on communalism. But he didn't do so. Rather he sowed democracy and secularism so deep in our society, things we are always proud of.
Elections were conducted and INC won almost every one bcos there was no alternative and they had immense support of ppl. U need to read up on the definition of dictator.
At 24:06 he goes on to say, "People seem to imagine that if you differ from a person you must dislike him and you must indeed try to push him out, knock him out, and that is the BASIC ERROR." And that is the point what people today as well need to understand what our Honourable Prime Minister back then was trying to emphasize..

@X Y I agree with you somewhat on the Kashmir issue and fully with the Chinese blunder. I would say he was not strong enough to beat down domestic opposition (from the predecessors of today's BJP). But aside from that, I would certainly call Nehru a visionary. He could have been more effective in dealing with the Executive (the ICS bureaucrats). But, constitutionally, he was primarily a legislator. He was cautious about asserting his authority too far. That's what the beginning of this interview is about.

Pt. Nehru is my absolute favourite Indian PM, however fluency in English is NOT why he should be respected. To be PM of India, one need not been fluent (or even versed) in English language.

Funny He felt in 1958 that people did not have time for each other due to technological advances. He would be mortified with today's world. The guy was so well read and comes across very much as a free thinker.
@@GK-sx2dm Yes, he committed mistakes with regard to Kashmir and China but this is the man because of whom democracy is thriving in our country. If it wouldn't have been for him then like some other British colonies we may have gone towards the path of dictatorship after independence. His government had clear majority for 25 years..it was very easy for him to declare himself as supreme and scrap elections. ISRO, IIT AND IIMs are all his vision. So, yes do criticize the man but do give the credit where it is due.
This is true charisma and leadership. Erudite, cultured, humorous and self-deprecating. No narcissistic mann ki baat. Just got things done. India was lucky to have him as a leader. And this is a man, the crass election winner blame who idiots say has no other alternative!

Amazing, watching this video from the hostel of an institution whose foundation was given by our most visionary PM. #IIT.
Thank you DD.

It is said and even testified by many,that even after establishing IIT Kgp, he kept himself abreast with even minute problems of the institution,including even the canteen issues.We can only be grateful that our nation got such visionaries,and not just him,almost every1 who helped frame our constitution.
He had come to Amu n gifted us free electricity for 200yrs!! This is how much he valued Educational institution!!
I appreciate your gratitude and feel likewise. Pandit Nehru laid the foundation stone for my alma mater as well. (B.Tech IIT Bombay, Class of 1980.) Unfortunately, I have a feeling that most IITans of the current generation do not recognize Nehru's vision.
This footage is the most exact meaning of the phrase " a hidden gem" ! Thank you Doordarshan.🙏🙏🙏
The last three minutes of this interview / video brought me to tears. If there was ever a heart churning, passionate appeal from a real son of India, here is one! Salute, Panditji.

Hats off to this freedom fighter, intellectual and one who himself considered Gandhiji as his leader. And his self criticism at the beginning was an eye opener. RIP panditji.

And all this took 25 years for him and don't forget the corrupt regime he is founding father of,and a dam is alright okay goodluck to you.
He built extreme corruption to build the family business. Green revolution was just a paperwork. India years was for long dependent on American wheat even after so called green revolution.

He was a corrupt socialist, his rule in India was mostly destructive to the nation as a whole, his daughter and his party was much the same and under them India saw no impressive amount of growth. His family also corrupted India. He may have been a charismatic leader but the was not a good leader.
Jacob Seed I would like to understand your perspective, can you recommend me the books you have read to arrive at this conclusion! Cheers
Charismatic my ass
The quality of discussion is unparalleled by today's standards. There was no corporate PR firm involved in setting up an 'image' or the interview itself. The interviewer threw critical questions at his face directly and Nehru took it with a calm demeanor which is rare today. It was just an stimulating intellectually honest discussion. I am proud to say that I am a citizen of a country whose first Prime Minister even if not perfect had these admirable traits.
Thank you DD for giving us an opportunity for introspection of what we believe the truth is based on some lies or half truth spread for petty gains in today's politics,these two interviews give us a chance to think of the turbulent time and challenges faced by our leaders.I hope people will think twice before abusing the first prime minister of our great nation.

Look at the intellect of this man. At the peak of his career, he is warning himself and others around him, that with his popularity and power, he can turn in to dictator, if not checked. When you are in so much in touch with your inner demons and understand how can it affect you, you can hardly go wrong. This anonymous piece of letter, which he wrote, is enough proof of Pandit nehru's credibility. There are some in this day and age, who wants to be Pandit nehru by wearinhg his jacket and copy his style by stuffing lotus in ther jackets, but where will they get this vision, intellect and knowledge from? Imagine writing Discovery of India, when there was no internet available?? How many books this man must have read to give us the timeline of different rulers of bygone eras? We were blessed to have chacha nehru as our first prime minister or else, this country would have doomed like pakistan, from the word go.
@Traveller897 Yet it would be evident to some that his extent of socialism was perhaps not most felicitous for India. And your comment that Nehru committed no blunders is immanently pernicious; it is the same disposition that followers of a dictator employ for their supreme leader. I would not contradict that he was indeed a towering figure, but to say he committed no blunders is hyperbolic. Bear in mind his reluctance to fund the military adequately, something no Prime Minister ought to do.
@Traveller897 This reminds me. It is beyond me why one must forget that he was instrumental in having the Intelligence Bureau snoop upon members of Subhas Chandra Bose's family -- respectable men no doubt -- and having the reports sent over to the British.
@Traveller897 Wow! You guys are totally into celebrating the absence of prescience, aren't you? After the pernicious flopshow of the Khilafat movement, anyone should have seen the Partition coming from light years away. Read Dr. Ambedkar's book _Pakistan or the Partition of India._ Their intellect notwithstanding, neither Nehru nor Gandhi nor Patel; literally no one managed to pen a counter to his phenomenal book. Mind you, he wrote his book years _before_ independence. So, while you and I may have benefit of hindsight, he did not. He had only his intellect and prescience with him. He was proven right.
That they were treacherous should have been evident much prior to independence itself.
@Traveller897 Your idealism is better restricted to theory. In real life, _my enemy's enemy is my friend_ has to be applied more often than not. Hitler was Britain's enemy. Ergo, Bose saw nothing wrong in soliciting Hitler's help in raising an army. This does not indicate that he sympathized with Hitler's abhorrent policies.
Anything would have been fair game for the nation's independence. Yes, Bose _IS_ a role model, because he stood for secular nationalism and envisioned a strong India. Although, I must admit his vision was too philistine in that he never had concrete ideas with regard to forging Hindu-Muslim unity. As it turns out, neither did the Congress. On this point, I shall concede benefit of hindsight.
I really do not want to get personal, but while Modi's devotees are idiots, Nehru's devotees are no less. Their paradigm is so quixotic that they never make a distinction between pragmatism and idealism. To them, Nehru was no less than a godsend. How does this make Nehru's devotees any different from Modi's devotees insofar as fanaticism is concerned?
Anyhow, my point was not with regard to whether Bose is a good role model. It was with regard to Nehru's scandalous snooping on Bose's family _and_ sending over reports over to the British.
@Traveller897 You drastically err in comparing the two. Bose sought help from Hitler in raising an army; he did not help him the way the U.S. helped the mujahids. Seeking help is no sin regardless of how evil the other side is. Also, I am curious why, when you insist so much on Hitler's devilry which no one must refute, you do not insist that the British Raj was as much evil if not more, and Hitler was certainly lesser of the two given that he was not the one persecuting us Indians. The British were. Bose was thus justified in seeking Hitler's help. When national independence is your ultimate goal, you do not worry about global politics; about who considers whom evil. You simply do everything in your power to gain independence, whereafter one may form a cogent foreign policy with regard to the conduct of other nations. This is common sense. Bose understood this.
Also, it is a matter of national ignominy that a respectable family was not only snooped upon, but intelligence pertaining to it was _shared with the British!_ Do you understand the gravity of it all? One does NOT share intelligence with other countries pertinent even to terrorists unless other countries have a decisive threat from them. Bose's family, far from being a terrorist family, was a respectable family. You simply do not snoop on them for two decades and share intelligence with the same nation that colonized us! Why is this so difficult to understand for Nehru's cult of devotees? By the way, all of this is indeed based on proof. Were you living under a rock in 2015 when this scandal broke out?
This is not how a sovereign nation conducts itself! Give me one good reason why I must not doubt whether 15 August 1947 was indeed our independence day.

To become dictator one needs guts & ruthlessness, he lacked either. He is both good & bad. Good he lacked ruthlessness to become a dictator and bad cause he lacked guts in taking many important decisions
His daughter became one. Emergency
@@sbadrinarayanan ask people about emergency who were there in 1976 you will know the reality
@@soumitrashrivastava8720 i was born in 1977. I grww rhrough the aftermath of emergency.documented life photis of my infancy.
Indian government is not so foolish to tolerate the dictatorship of someone else who even did something good.
People abusing him day and night must remember that he upheld democracy at a time dictatorship was so rampant in the world. It was easy and acceptable more being dictator rather democratic. He was also so popular that he could easily turn dictator and dictate on communalism. But he didn't do so. Rather he sowed democracy and secularism so deep in our society, things we are always proud of.
Ooh hello... Apna gayan apne tuk rukho

Nehru was a dictator on behalf of Britishers. It was transfer of power not freedom.
@@vidyutdevam9204 Yes. Transfer of power to the people of India.
Elections were conducted and INC won almost every one bcos there was no alternative and they had immense support of ppl. U need to read up on the definition of dictator.
At 24:06 he goes on to say, "People seem to imagine that if you differ from a person you must dislike him and you must indeed try to push him out, knock him out, and that is the BASIC ERROR."
And that is the point what people today as well need to understand what our Honourable Prime Minister back then was trying to emphasize..
Thank you so much for putting it up on RUclips. Great Visionary, Great Leader.
Great leader😂😂
Lol
Needs to be preserved
If he was great visionary he would have done population transfer on religious lines when the nation was divided .
"Great leader" for minorities
Thnx for this well educated and cultured interview
Full randi choda rahega interview ke pehle.... Tabhi thoda chilled lag raha... 👍👍
speaking with english ascent doesnt make a interview Educated nor cultured....

@@srini143vasu it's accent not ascent.. it certainly doesn't.. But look at the content he's talking sense and not jumlas.
One should never ignore the positives......Some of his policies failed but he will always be respected by people who have properly gone through the history and geopolitical situation of India at that time... 😊😊
I am surprised never really thought I will see such an interview Thanks for this uploading it
Aftr seeing this video i realise how much it is important to have an educated PM.
Do you want an educated child to abuse his mother in foreign language?
Mom is happy the child abused in other language.
Criteria should be the PM should be with a vision of Nation First...
Edu=Innate/Native Skill/knowledge Cate=Care/Nurture. Non-graduate Lundoni student who tried to make Discovery of India in the blonde bush between legs of BriShit Edwina, is literate (Roman & Farsi script) but not educated.
So what he has done for India?
@@sushant6360 everything he could do in his life, he did. Actually he did, alongwith other stalwart leaders of that time, much more before independence than aftr independence. Before being the 1st PM, he is a top nationalist aftr Gandhiji, who struggled for freedom of India.
Education doesn't matters what matters really is the knowledge, experience and character. Nehru was a characterless man.
First time I am hearing chacha's voice ... 😉😎

Such a visionary...
In depth understanding of every aspect.
Thank you... Nehruji
Yes I am searching for my Oxford Dictionary.. I hope we see a progressive leader like him in future, he was way ahead of his time.

What a deep, beautiful and brilliant interview!
Wow!! Greatest PM, the architect of modern India! Salute ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
greatest?? i highly doubt that .....
@faizan elahi why he was so wary of Netaji subhash Bose, if he was so inclusive in ideas ?
@@ayushtyagi8242 read the book "97 blunders of Nehru"
@faizan elahi no brother. He was MMS of those times in the hands of bri.tish
Worst prime minister of India . He made so many blunders .
Such an amazing intellectual, criticizing himself to keep himself in check. How have we fallen
It was a different time he was a brilliant man 🥰👍🏻
@The Truth bakth spotted
They were intelligent intellectuals. India has fallen very badly. Now it seems like India is ran by goats
@@hsd287 totally agree with you
@@Abrahamicunity chamcha spotted
Wow this is a great interview and this is the first interview I have seen of our first prime minister . The command over the language is outstanding , his thoughts are of different level. People let’s not get into negative comments and just enjoy the video and see through the best moments of this video . My best part is from 32.00 mins onwards till the end. Enjoy the day ✌️🙏🏻
What truthful personality. How frank and transparent and what a quality of his thoughts
i dont see him drinking water in between and leaving the interview.
Back then journalists asked real questions.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Burn 💥💥
Hahahahahahahaha
Back then prime ministers were educated and civilized. Journalists did not ask questions like " modiji, how do you eat mangoes"
Joyal kurian , they were fighters not simply bluffers .
Truly priceless... I love this man... We all should uphold the values he brought to the INDIA. He made the modern India. I saw a lot of sensible people here. We all can make our country a place our forefathers dreamed of.
You right said
👌
@Ayush Ayush Here comes chamcha or I say bhakt!!! who says Nehru was not elected...Nehru was elected 3 times by Indian people 1952, 1957, 1962....He gives voting rights to every Indian irrespective of cast creed religion gender based on Universal Adult franchise...
What an interview!!The qurstions and answers ,both are equally outstanding and reflective of a great era of politics and journalism...
Nehru,no doubt in why he is called a visionary and Statesman!! The level of intellect ,clarity of thoughts , understanding and the depth of democratic,secular spirit.. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Thid video is an absolute gem!A treasure indeed.
Thank you DD for this upload ;
Accidentally come across this interview.felt so happy to see and hear Nehru and realise his mettle.
This man is a gem now I understand why his birthday is celebrated as children's day
Aj mujhe hsi aa rhi ki us waqt ka PM aur aj ka PM lot of different. Nehru k pairo ki dhool bhi nhi hai. Aj mujhe garv hota hai ki hmara phla PM Nehru the. Great👍
Mujhe bhi.🙏
Vo bhi mulla, tu bhi 😂😂
Wow!! He was such a smart Prime Minister. We need him now also. What a difference between the current Prime Minister Modi and our First Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. Nehru a nationalist and Modi is all for power and self love. Not having self reflection and questioning we have gone far away from it.
Wow this time thank you RUclips for recommending this video.
My all time favorite prime minister. What a visionary he was.

WE had SUCH a GREAT Leader - fabulous
A must watch - especially these days
A far superior and learned intellectual the present day scums can not comprehend.
@@BoraiahNataraju far superior ?? According to him south india was different country and shortage of food was caused by high eating habits of indian..

😂😂😂
what a visionary the man is.. salute 1000 times.. everyone, be it congress and BJP or any other party, they must watch this..
@X Y I agree with you somewhat on the Kashmir issue and fully with the Chinese blunder. I would say he was not strong enough to beat down domestic opposition (from the predecessors of today's BJP). But aside from that, I would certainly call Nehru a visionary. He could have been more effective in dealing with the Executive (the ICS bureaucrats). But, constitutionally, he was primarily a legislator. He was cautious about asserting his authority too far. That's what the beginning of this interview is about.
@X Y Everything cannot be done quickly and single handedly. Kashmir belongs to Kashmiris, let them solve their own issues.
@@islamicsensei Who are Kashmiris? What is their religion?
Yogi Abhay , Do u mean this bastard who brought eclipse to every Indian people since 1947 ?? wake up yogi 🧘♀️ !!

Nehru ji English really excellent . Even though it was 1950's see how fluency he is talking very good English .. we really miss him lot
What do you mean by even though it was 1950s
Colonial Indian people were very very very different from today's people
Be it English or high morals
What do you do w English?😂😂😂
Pt. Nehru is my absolute favourite Indian PM, however fluency in English is NOT why he should be respected. To be PM of India, one need not been fluent (or even versed) in English language.
No other PM India had class, sophistication, openness like Pandit Nehru. Thank you so much sir for leading this country during the tough initial years and for sowing the seeds of democracy🙏🙏🙏
@Abhinandan Zambare so what? What was Savarkar contribution to national struggle ?
that line about not blaming others he said in 1958
I wish todays leaders must listen to him as their 101 course before stepping into parliament..
How a statesman must be and take the country forward.
Absolutely!!!
If you understood him, you should immediately leave you religion and become spiritual.
Just because he given shelter to your religion it doesnt mean he was a great leader he is the example of you can do politocs on religion and become pm
@@Vivek-ti4jd sir, last time I read that Pandit J L nehru was born in 1889 while Muslims full-fledged residing in India since as early as 1192... So who gave shelter to "my religion" for 800 years before Nehru ji was born???
Plz try to make some sense when you speak.. 🙏🙏
@@Vivek-ti4jd we are an independent nation from 300+ years of slavery because of such leaders...The least we can do is respect them...
Funny He felt in 1958 that people did not have time for each other due to technological advances. He would be mortified with today's world. The guy was so well read and comes across very much as a free thinker.
It's same with every generation. We will think the same about our next generation.
Well read my ass, he was a Fucking ass hole, who fucked up India and we are suffering...
@@newsflash4382 would have liked if your comment was more constructive. Blanket slurs are everywhere today, from the left to the right.
@@GK-sx2dm History is objective my friend. You seem indoctrinated.
@@GK-sx2dm Yes, he committed mistakes with regard to Kashmir and China but this is the man because of whom democracy is thriving in our country. If it wouldn't have been for him then like some other British colonies we may have gone towards the path of dictatorship after independence. His government had clear majority for 25 years..it was very easy for him to declare himself as supreme and scrap elections. ISRO, IIT AND IIMs are all his vision. So, yes do criticize the man but do give the credit where it is due.
This is true charisma and leadership. Erudite, cultured, humorous and self-deprecating. No narcissistic mann ki baat. Just got things done. India was lucky to have him as a leader. And this is a man, the crass election winner blame who idiots say has no other alternative!
That's yr opinion. And regarding how a leader should be let voters choose themselves.
