Eleven Years younger than me,eleven times more important to the nation,eleven hundred times more beloved of the nation,Sir Nehru has suddenly departed from our midst and I remain alive to hear the sad news from Delhi-and bear the shock…The old guard-room is completely empty now…I have been fighting Sir Nehru all these 10 years over what I consider faults in public policies.But I knew all along that he alone could get them corrected.No one else would dare do it,and he is gone,leaving me weaker than before in my fight.But fighting apart ,a beloved friend is gone,the most civilised person among us all.Not many among us are civilised yet.God save our people-Rajajis obituary on Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru
