No one can doubt Nehru’s intention of working for welfare of people: Rajnath

-

In a tribute to the nation’s first PM Jawaharlal Nehru on his 126th birth anniversar­y, home minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday said despite ideologica­l difference­s, no one can doubt his intention to work for the welfare of people and nation-building.

“There are many issues in which we have difference­s with Nehru. We have difference­s over his policies, but we can’t doubt his intention to work for the welfare of people and nation-building,” he said.

Singh said he may not see Nehru, a Congressma­n, in the ‘political mirror’ but could always see him in the ‘national mirror’.

He said Nehru took upon himself the tremendous responsibi­lity of steering our newly-born nation when it was liberated from foreign domination.
