Just wanna ask you what happened to the treasure from JAIGHAR FORT, Look Bangalore you can see how many asserts of them. See what happened to AKSAI CHIN, Just asking how did he became PM even though he isn't worth candidate. Why didnt we have VITO power and how come he gifted that to China. What was he doing when Muslims started to kill pandits in Kashmir and he claims him self a pandit being a Muslim for vote politics

[@ArchitAmberish]

@@tharun19283 He did even agreed PM post to be given to Jinnah in order to avoid partition of India , it was Jinnah who declined the offer . Maulana Abul Kalam Azad was the President of congress from 1940 to 1946. He was extremely against the idea of partion But since he was a muslim and there was widely conflict between Hindus and Muslims in India , he was dropped as the President , at the point partition seemed invertiable , Sardar patel won the presidential elections but Mahatma Gandhi convinced him to leave his post and Make Nehru instead because he had close relations with the Mountbattens , This would have helped to get the partition matter much more in Congress's favour. Even though, Sardar Patel passed away in 1950. Nehru would have came to power anyhow It was the Republic of China (ROC) Which was part of the allied forces in ww2 . After the defeat of axis , It was the idea of Joseph Stalin of ussr to give the permanently members of security council the veto power . These counties included the ROC, USA,USSR,UK and France , but after the communists win Civil War in China and established the People's Republic Of China (PRC) And the ROC government was limited to the island of Taiwan, the US was afraid of Growth of communism in Asia, The ROC was in no condition to have a permanent seat in UN. That's why US offered the vacant seat of ROC to India , But Nehru declined it because he wanted to improve indo - Chinese relations. He wanted to make China as a key Ally in the midst of Cold war . That's why he advised the UN to give PRC the seat which was Rightfully theirs . But China backstabbed Nehru and India while invading askai chin . Nehru did everything to establish strong relationship between India and China . Though I believe it's not right to blame China for the cause of war , I believed its the fault of British who did not clarified the borderline between India and China in Ladakh and Arunanchal Pradesh . There are literally 4-5 different borderlines made by the British and non of them was officialized by the Qing empire and British Raj. And First of All Nehru did not took the treasure of Jaigarh Fort . It was Indira Gandhi . At that time the royal house of Jaipur was represented by Raja Sawai Mansingh (II) and his wife Gayatri Devi. The family was independent candidate and never saw eye-to-eye with the ruling Congress Party. Gayatri Devi had defeated Congress Party’s candidate thrice. Gayatri Devi had severely objected to the emergency imposed by Indira Gandhi in 1975, thus further enraging an already upset Congress leadership. As a result, Indira Gandhi ordered IT department to take stock of royal house’s income and assets. IT-department had to seek the help of army to conduct the raids inside the palace. The quest to find the hidden treasure continued for three long months. After three months of relentless search, army finally called off the unsuccessful excavation work. However, to make way for army’s heavy vehicles, Delhi-Jaipur highway was closed for three days. It was said that the vehicles contained treasure found during the excavation. Nobody has been able to ascertain what was carried in the vehicles and Jaigarh Fort’s treasure has remained a mystery ever since. And what the hell are you talking about Kashmiri Pandits? The massacre occurred in early 1990s 26 years After Nehru's Death in 1964. And to correct you that only Kashmiri Pandits were not a victim of the massacre , many innocent Muslims were also killed by the extremists who tried to resist and oppose the violence. I hope you got answer to all you queries mate 👍

@@sureshpoduval6951 if u are compairing the present day issues to the mistakes that happened in the past , man u are truly not taking responsibility of what else could have been achieved during the different govts. 1) their relationship ,if any, is none of our business. and sardar ji were quite old and ill during partition to be the head for the coming decade or so to have a stable govt.Thus even though non democartic this was a good decision. 2)u gave too much focus to kashmir and yes it is true that he should have not keep it on a hill hold . whatever happened was unfortunate and highly condemned . but can it all be forced on just his sholders? just a question. 3) u are thinking very 2-d about hyderabad and jk situation . jk is surrounded by both pak and china which is way different from hyderabad which is completely isolated . SO the logic is flawed. still iron man did a commendable job in uniting india. 4)india as u already know had very low foreign intelligence due to ib being split and hence the decisions were flawed . This is one of the biggest mistake that happended due to lack of perspective. 5)kaul was indeed cheif during the sino india war ,and yes he lacked the experience and hence failed . yet the damage control was done ,not in the best way but still well 6)This is a difference in perspective mate, one leader had millions to in the times of extremely low finances and hence saw ladak as bad for food cultivation , while RG thinks in the modern prospect where india has grown out of those dark ages after years of strugles and now we can enjoy our different terrains . 7) & 8) again a political move that was flawed and costed in future. similarly we can say that even pm modi too have these flaws including unplanned schemes like demonitisation,agnipath,beti bachao,gst,and many more. yet we accept that govts make mistakes and we have to let it through. and adding to it JN did build the india we now live in and we have to accept that he had a great vission,be it 5year scemes , panchayat system,iits,iims, aiims , powerplants , indias first national highway and so on and it shows work can be done even in the darkest of times. We should take notes from the bad decisions that were made and ammend these mistakes in future , gade murde ukhadne se desh aage nahi badhta , jawab mangne se banta hai. so ask the ruling govts on how they will make india better. jai hind.

The first Prime Minister was Netaji Subhas Bose as head of the Provisional INA government. Nehru was a British stooge. During 1947 riots he partied with the Mountbattens and took no preventive action when millions of people were killed and women raped during partition riots. He is one of the butchers of partition riots. He never missed an opportunity to visit England to get into Edwina's bed and pump her. What was the need of him attending coronation of Elizabeth whose country exploited India for 2 hundred years.

​@@sureshpoduval6951 me being poor is because of my father being poor. So what will I do? Keep crying because my father didn't work hard? What will I gain by hating him for what he did? Many problems exist in this world because of our predecessors. Your job is to make it right and work to make it right. If you don't understand this basic thing, the education system definitely raised someone who can't think of solutions but keeps crying about the problems. As a statesman their job is to make things right by thinking about solutions rather than crying about it. The caste system exists in India do you think Nehru kept crying about it by saying the ancestors did something bad in the past and now we're living like this. He worked with other statesmen by thinking about solutions to it so people can benefit. Dig your head out the gutter.

What an outstanding Prime Minister more courageous than a leader stronger than a man facing lion in his den.
