Under American advice ( by American envoy John Kenneth Galbraith who made and ran American policy on the war as all other top policy makers in USA were absorbed in coincident Cuban Missile Crisis ) Nehru refrained, not according to the best choices available, from using the Indian air force to beat back the Chinese advances.

Nehru began to be frequently embarrassed by her ruthlessness and disregard for parliamentary tradition, and was " hurt " by what he saw as an assertiveness with no purpose other than to stake out an identity independent of her father.

Without Gandhi's unifying personality, the Indian National Congress began to splinter during his years in prison, splitting into two factions, one led by Chitta Ranjan Das and Motilal Nehru favouring party participation in the legislatures, and the other led by Chakravarti Rajagopalachari and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, opposing this move.

When Lord Louis Mountbatten formally proposed the plan on 3 June 1947, Patel gave his approval and lobbied Nehru and other Congress leaders to accept the proposal.

However, Patel was criticised by Nehru, secular Muslims and taxed by Gandhi over his alleged wish to see Muslims from other parts of India depart.

Nehru, in his preface to the Report of the Committee, which was published in 1955, wrote: " They ( different calendars ) represent past political divisions in the country … now that we have attained Independence, it is obviously desirable that there should be a certain uniformity in the calendar for our civic, social and other purposes and this should be done on a scientific approach to this problem.

In 1946, during Jamia ’ s silver jubilee celebration, one could see the crisis that India had to face in the following year: Mr. Mohammad Ali Jinnah, and Liaquat Ali Khan were on one side of Dr. Zakir Husain, the vice chancellor, on the dias ; Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Asaf Ali and Sir Rajagopalachari were on the other side.

Mountbatten was fond of Congress leader Jawaharlal Nehru and his liberal outlook for the country.

The Nationalist school has focused on Congress, Gandhi, Nehru and high level politics.

Nehru was elected by the Indian National Congress to assume office as independent India's first Prime Minister in 1947, and re-elected when the Congress party won India's first general election in 1951.

The son of moderate nationalist leader and Congressman Motilal Nehru, Jawaharlal Nehru became a leader of the left wing of the Congress.

His father, Motilal Nehru ( 1861-1931 ), a wealthy barrister who belonged to the Kashmiri Pandit community, served twice as President of the Indian National Congress during the Independence Struggle.

Nehru harboured doubts regarding the ineffectualness of the Congress but agreed to work for the party in support of the Indian civil rights movement in South Africa.

The pact had been initiated earlier in the year at Allahabad at a meeting of the All-India Congress Committee which was held at the Nehru residence at Anand Bhawan.

Nehru returned to India in 1912, where he worked as a barrister in Allahabad while moving up the ranks of the Congress during World War I.

Nehru first met Gandhi in 1916, at the Lucknow session of the Congress.

When the British colonial administration outlawed the Congress party, Nehru went to prison for the first time.

In the rift that formed within the Congress following the sudden closure of the non-cooperation movement after the Chauri Chaura incident, Nehru remained loyal to Gandhi and did not join the Swaraj Party formed by his father Motilal Nehru and CR Das.

Nehru was one of the first leaders to demand that the Congress Party should resolve to make a complete and explicit break from all ties with the British Empire.

Nehru assumed the presidency of the Congress party during the Lahore session on 29 December 1929 and introduced a successful resolution calling for complete independence.

After the Lahore session of the Congress in 1929, Nehru gradually emerged as the paramount leader of the Indian independence movement.

Nehru and most of the Congress leaders were initially ambivalent about Gandhi's plan to begin civil disobedience with a satyagraha aimed at the British salt tax.

Nehru nominated Gandhi to succeed him as Congress President during his absence in jail, but Gandhi declined, and Nehru then nominated his father as his successor.

Nehru elaborated the policies of the Congress and a future Indian nation under his leadership in 1929.

All these aims formed the core of the " Fundamental Rights and Economic Policy " resolution drafted by Nehru in 1929-31 and were ratified by the All India Congress Committee under Gandhi's leadership.

However, some Congress leaders objected to the resolution and decided to oppose Nehru.

When the Congress party under Nehru chose to contest elections and accept power under the Federation scheme, Gandhi resigned from party membership.

Nehru declared that the only two parties that mattered in India were the British Raj and Congress.
