On Thursday, May 28, 2021, India celebrated the death anniversary of the first Prime Minister of independent India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.
The entire day, Indians across the globe took to social media in order to remember and commemorate the legacy of Pandit Nehru. Thousands took to Twitter to remember Pt Nehru by sharing his photographs, quotes, and memories.
Film director Anubhav Sinha also share a picture of the late politician but instead ended up getting trolled on Twitter. Sinha tweeted a picture of Nehru standing with the genius scientist Albert Einstein.
Tun Sambanthan was a visionary and icon.
RECENT reminiscences of the late Tun V.T. Sambanthan tended to emphasise his humility, integrity and vision in service to the nation; in particular his self-sacrifice in the cause of uplifting the Indian community, especially those mired with the low-income syndrome.
He was a Tamil aristocrat, born and bred in rural Sungai Siput, who rose to become a minister when the nation attained independence on Aug 31, 1957.
He was consecutively minister of Labour, Health, Works, Posts and Telecommunications and, finally, National Unity, a vital portfolio after the trauma of May 13.
Most if not all the tributes posted on Sambanthan focused on his strategy in purchasing 22 British-owned rubber and coconut plantations to prevent the workers in these estates from being thrown out of work along with their families following fragmentation of the estates by capitalist cartels.
