28 years since the late JN Dixit made these observations in his book My South Block years but few can disagree with his conclusion especially after what we witnessed this May. #NehrusFirstRecruits

The exact spot where Vasco Da Gama had arrived with his fellow Portuguese traders in 1498. The West "discovered" ( or rediscovered) India at this moment in history. Important landmark in India's collective memory. #NehrusFirstRecruits #KLF2025

As #India prepares to welcome #Indonesian President Subianto here is a section from #NehrusFirstRecruits to remind how hunger for #food and common struggle for #freedom brought India and #Indonesia together. India raised its voice when Indonesia was about to be re-colonised.
I discuss diplomacy #NehrusFirstRecruits, India's neighbourhood and much more in this freewheeling chat at TheRandomnessPod of Shashank Jamdagni @jamdagni1711 . I really enjoyed the chat. Hope you will give it a listen.

The new year comes with plans for more public engagement on #NehrusFirstRecruits , #ASingularSpy #TheGreatGameInAfghanistan Hope to meet readers, friends and fellow travelers as the journey continues. #HappyNewYear
High decibel sloganeering will not change the history of #Nehru era India. Constructive engagement and reading will at least help those who are genuinely interested in learning about #Nehru and his times. #NehrusFirstRecruits #JaipurLitFest #JLF https://t.co/4u0PE73yZy

At a recent event on #NehrusFirstRecruits, a guest asked what Nehru did for grassroots Indians and I responded saying that Nehru was the first to address India's inherited hunger crisis. Happy birthday #JawaharlalNehru. Thank you for imagining a capacious and tolerant India!

So today while talking about #NehrusFirstRecruits I reminded how hunger prevention and territorial cohesion of India were foreign policy goals in #Nehru era. Thank you @AshokaUniv @pallaviraghava1 for hosting me. Truly grateful to the students/faculty for the appreciation.
After a long gap, met the ever generous Amb. Chinmaya Gharekhan, direct recruit to the Indian Foreign Service (IFS), 1958. #NehrusFirstRecruits
