Examines, both critically and objectively the performance of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru as the First Prime Minister of independent India vis-a-vis such vital aspects of the country’s corporate life as democracy, secularism, foreign policy, the Tibet and Kashmir problems, Assam, position of the Hindi language, and above all, the much-publicised planning process.
What led to the creation of yawning gap between the avowed aims and objectives of Nehru’s policies and the actual achievements? Reviews The book should generate a lively debate on the plus minus sides of Nehru’s role as the first Prime Minister of India. CK Sardana, Financial Express, May 20, 1995
लेखक ने प्रथम प्रधानमंत्राी जवाहरलाल नेहरू के 17 वर्श के षासनकाल की प्रायः सभी असफलताओं को तो गिनाया, किन्तु उनके विचार में प्रथम प्रधानमंत्राी का कोई ऐसा कार्य नहीं था जिसे ऐतिहासिक दृश्टि से सफलता माना जा सके।’’
