  • Appendix I Nelson Mandela on Nehru
    0l F7 Much has already been written on Jawaharlal Nehru, the charismatic leader and builder of modem India. Naturally, in his birth centenary year there should be such a deep interest in studying and analysing the various facets of Nehru's life, work and seminal thought. This is, however, a specialised study on Nehru's vision of Africa, an exploited part of the world that was so close to the heart of this humanist and champion of freedom and peace. It reveals how even as a young man, the tragic period of slavery and brutal sup pression in Africa moved him so intensely that he started telling the international community of its "special responsibility" towards the peoples of Africa. After India's independence, his contribu tion to the process of decolonisation, especially in regard to Kenya, Algeria and Portuguese territories makes a fascinating reading. His voice on the problems of hapless Congo and the tripartite aggression on Egypt after the nationalisation of the Suez Canal was loud and clear. It was a voice of sanity and morality. His words had the breadth of his vision. Nehru had no doubt in his mind that the obnoxious policy of apartheid was an affront to human dignity. His advice to Indian settlers in Africa that they should identify themselves with the urges and aspirations of the in digenous population is considered unique, though controversial. Nehru viewed that the independence of African countries could only be safeguarded through economic strength. He passionately advocated Indo-African economic and techni cal cooperation which has today become a model of South-South cooperation.

  • Children's Day Google Doodle - Remembering Nehru on His B'day!
    Children's Day Google Doodle - Remembering Nehru on His B'day! India celebrates Children's Day on November 14, which is the birthday of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first prime minister of the country. He was fondly called Chacha Nehru or Chachaji. This article will help you know all about this day from the reason of celebration to the first time it was celebrated. Watch the video to know more about this day and Jawaharlal Nehru.Children's Day - Reason of Celebration Children's Day - Reason of Celebration Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was very fond of children, it was his love for children that made Indians celebrate his birthday as Children's Day. Children's Day was celebrated the first time in 1964 on his birthday. Prior to 1964, India celebrated Children's day on 20th November, which was observed as the Universal Children's day by the United Nations. But after his death in 1964, it was unanimously decided to celebrate his birthday as Children's day. Pandit Nehru, who emphasized the importance of giving love and affection to children said: "The children of today will make the India of tomorrow. The way we bring them up will determine the future of the country" Jawaharlal Nehru - Early Life Jawaharlal Nehru was the first Prime Minister of Independent India. He was born on November 14, 1889, in Allahabad, India. His father, Motilal Nehru, was a well-known eminent lawyer who belonged to Kashmiri Pundit's community.

  • Idss Commentaries(13/2005)
    IDSS COMMENTARIES (13/2005) IDSS Commentaries are intended to provide timely and, where appropriate, policy relevant background and analysis of contemporary developments. The views of the authors are their own and do not represent the official position of IDSS. ___________________________________________________________________________ Deepening Singapore-India Strategic Ties Manjeet S Pardesi* 22 March 2005 SINGAPORE and India are developing a stable, long-lasting and comprehensive multi- dimensional relationship by cooperating on economic, political, and strategic issues. The many high-level official visits involving ministers and senior military personnel between the two countries since President S R Nathan’s state visit in January 2003 -- which was also the first state visit by a Singapore President to India -- testify to the importance attached to their bilateral ties. The two countries have agreed in principle to conclude a Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA) that would be signed this year. Once concluded, the CECA would include Singapore’s first Free Trade Area (FTA) with a developing nation, while being India’s first FTA with a high-income country. In 2003, Singapore and India signed a Defence Cooperation Agreement (DCA) that included an exchange of personnel, intelligence sharing, joint naval, air, and land exercises as well as defence policy dialogue. Singapore views India as a potential great power in the midst of internal transition and as such is keen to engage India economically and strategically. Past Relations – Cold War Years The fact that the two countries have been cooperating on numerous fronts for more than a decade now does not, however, mean that they have always enjoyed good relations.

I have been collecting coins of India from my child hood days. At that time, no internet was there, what to speak of internet, even no reference books on coin collection, were available with me. I simply collected coins from circulation, choosing only by different designs. After buying a reference book on coins, “Nineteenth & Twentieth Century Coins of India”, written by Mr. D Chakravarty of Kolkata, I gained a good knowledge about the science of coin collection. After getting a broad- band connection, I had the privilege of accessing the Internet and got a chance to visit many sites on coin collection and learnt many facts about coins. As I am a teacher by profession, I wished to share my knowledge about coins with my fellow collectors and I presume that I have achieved my aim to some extent by starting this blog.

  • India-Singapore Relations Introduction
    India-Singapore Relations Introduction: India and Singapore have a close bilateral relationship based on convergence of economic and political interests. The process of economic reforms in India since the early 1990s created a strong basis for cooperation with Singapore, opening up possibilities for significant presence in each others’ economies. For India, Singapore has played an important role in reconnecting us to the countries of South East Asia since the inception of our Look East Policy in the early 1990s. As pluralistic societies, the two countries share similar concern about the challenges posed by terrorism and fundamentalism and have, therefore, found it mutually beneficial to evolve a broad framework of security cooperation. High-Level Exchanges: Singapore, led by then Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong, took a major interest in India’s economic reforms in the 1990s. He visited India in 1994 as the Chief Guest at the Republic Day celebrations. A reciprocal visit by PM Narasimha Rao took place in September 1994. Continued high level interactions, including the visit of PM Vajpayee in 2002, culminated with the signing of the Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA) in June 2005 during the visit of PM Lee Hsien Loong to India. Former Singapore Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong was awarded the Jawaharlal Nehru Award for International Understanding in 2004. Presidential visits include those undertaken by President K R Narayanan in November 2000 and by President A P J Abdul Kalam in February 2006 and the first ever visit by any Singapore President (S R Nathan) in January 2003. PM paid an official visit to Singapore in November 2011 and Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong undertook a State Visit to India in July 2012 and attended the ASEAN-India Commemorative Summit in Delhi in December of the same year.
