Jawaharlal Nehru 's greatest legacy was giving Indians the courage to resist oppression and claim freedom, Congress's Rahul Gandhi said on Saturday as he emphasised that it is the "pursuit of truth" that drives him and how that pursuit is inspired by his great-grandfather - the first PM of India.
"That's what Gandhi, Nehru, Ambedkar, Patel, and Bose were really teaching: how to befriend fear. Not socialism, not politics - just courage," he said. "Gandhi stood up to an empire with nothing but truth. Nehru gave Indians the courage to resist oppression and ultimately claim freedom. Any great human endeavour - science, art, resistance - it all begins with confronting fear," he added in a post on X where he shared the link to a free-wheeling conversation he had with party member Sandeep Dikshit.
