He was such an avidly narcissistic attention seeker that he won’t accept any invitation to a wedding ceremony unless he was the bridegroom himself or a funeral service unless he himself was the corpse !!
As he ardently desired generations to fondly remember him infinitely with sobs and hiccups, he ordered molestation of entire education curriculum to indoctrinate children with his imaginary greatness, dubious erudition, role in the War Of Freedom, so on and so forth. So deftly he shifted Universal Childrens Day falling on Nov. 20 every year declared by the United Nations to his own birthday on Nov. 14, then extensive propaganda was launched to ensure people believed Nehru loved children like no one else. As a matter of fact, he loved only three children, his so-called daughter Indira Gandhi and her two sons. And he did everything that he could do to promote them in every sphere of life.
More than 350 national verticals and landmarks have been named after the last Mughal and the dynasty established by him. A University has been named after him while he was not even a graduate !! His pathological narcissism and his Partys dynasticism may be eloquently explained by the fact that he is regarded as Father of ISRO/Space Science while ISRO was constituted in 1969 while he expired in 1964 itself !!
Such a publicity-mongering can be seen with Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal who spent Rs. 1100 crores of public funds on partys advertisements but didn’t have Rs. 450 crores to contribute for RRTS project between Delhi and Meerut. Only when his knuckles were rapped hard by the Supreme Court, did he condescend to honour the financial commitment.
