Jawaharlal Nehru
Jawaharlal Nehru was a central figure in Indian politics before and after independence, serving as the country's first Prime Minister from 1947 until his death in 1964. A key architect of modern India, Nehru was instrumental in shaping the nation's policies and promoting industrialization and scientific advancement. He was known for his vision of a secular and democratic India.
