What Nehru Said ...

A Modern army fights with modern weapons which it has to manufacture itself in its own country. It is based on the development of the industry, and industry must have agricultural base if it is to succeed. Then there is power, which is essential from the view point of the war effort, and from the point of view of industry and of even agriculture. Therefore we have to develop all round.

Among the major things agriculture is highly important. How can a country fight when it is lacking in food? We have to grow more and more food.


 

Welcome to Nehru Centre, Mumbai

Nehru Centre was conceived in 1972, not as a mute memorial, but as living testament and monument of faith in Jawaharlal Nehru's vision of man, his compassion for humanity, his concern for humanbeings and his undying passion to lift them to the greatest and highest purpose.

The planetarium was only the first phase of an ambitious memorial that truly reflects the awe inspiring spirit of a man who meant so much to three generations of Indians and which continues to inspire the present generation.

Nehru Planetarium: A centre for scientific study of astronomy and for meeting of scientists and scholars for discussions and lectures.
