One of the key philosophies that drove Jawaharlal Nehru was that children were the pillars on which the future of the country rested. It was to honour his dedication and passion for you minds that led to the day of 14th November, Jawaharlal Nehru’s Birthday, being celebrated as the much-loved Children’s day in India. However, it is only justified that on his birth anniversary we pay a tribute to the path laid by Nehru for the future of India. Or as he would call it, ‘India’s tryst with destiny’.
