From Prime Minister Narendra Modi, former president Pranab Mukherjee, former vice-president Hamid Ansari to Congress chief Rahul Gandhi, UPA chairperson Sonia, prominent politicians and leaders paid tribute to Jawaharlal Nehru on the former prime minister’s 55th death anniversary on Monday. Rahul, in fact, tweeted tributes to his great grandfather saying that several democracies “as young as India, soon degenerated into dictatorships”, but Nehru was one of those leaders who “helped democracy survive in India for over 70 years.”
Many democratic nations as young as India, soon degenerated into dictatorships.
