Nehru had a dream of a society which had critical thinking: Purushottam Agrawal
New Delhi: It was not possible to take the country forward by denying the plurality of India. Jawaharlal Nehru and all the leaders of his generation knew this very well. It is generally understood about Nehru that he was a modern-day man who had nothing to do with his country’s civilizational culture or was unaware of it, but the fact is that he was deeply involved with India, and he had a big dream for his country which is equally relevant today.
Poet-thinker Jawed Akhtar on Thursday released the book ‘Kaun Hain Bharat Mata’ edited by senior author Purushottam Agrawal. The book release took place at a special event held at Jawahar Bhavan. An engaging conversation between the two distinct personalities also took place about Nehru’s intellectual heritage and his views about India.
