Children are like buds in a garden and should be carefully and lovingly nurtured, as they are the future of the nation and the citizens of tomorrow ~ Jawaharlal Nehru 

A rose in his pocket, a smile on his face… forever.

आज 1889 में भारत के पहले प्रधानमंत्री पंडित जवाहरलाल नेहरु का जन्म इलाहाबाद में हुआ था। उन्हें 20वीं शताब्दी के सबसे बड़े भारतीय राजनेताओं में गिना जाता है। भारतीय स्वतंत्रता आंदोलन में बड़ी भूमिका निभाने के अलावा, उन्हें आईआईटी जैसे संस्थान शुरू करके उन्होंने देश को वैज्ञानिक नजरिया देने के लिए जाना जाता है। पंडित नेहरू, बच्चों के बीच काफी लोकप्रिय थे और बच्चे उन्हें चाचा नेहरू कहते थे। इसलिए उनके जन्मदिन को बाल दिवस के तौर पर भी मनाया जाता है।
