Nehru
Jawaharlal Nehru was a prominent Indian nationalist leader and the first Prime Minister of India, serving from 1947 until his death in 1964. A key figure in the Indian independence movement, he was instrumental in shaping India's modern political landscape and advocating for a secular, democratic state. Nehru's vision of a unified India was challenged by the communal tensions of his time, particularly with the Muslim League's push for a separate Muslim state, which ultimately led to the partition of India and the ongoing conflict over Kashmir.
