His birthday, 14 November is celebrated in India as Bal Divas (“Children’s Day”) in recognition of his lifelong passion and work for the welfare, education and development of children and young people. Children across India remember him as Chacha Nehru (Uncle Nehru).
Jawaharlal Nehru loved children very much and strongly believed that they were the future and the strength of the country.
