NEHRU GANDHI DYNASTY.
Yes, William Shakespeare
has been proved wrong…What’s in a name.
There is a lot in a
name...in fact it is only in a name...read it for yourself.
Scheme for slum dwellers….Rajiv
Gandhi Awas Yojna.
Solar mission named after
Jawaharlal Nehru.
Prabhu Chawla, recently,
wrote an article on similar lines...You come to Dilli and your route may go
something like this from… Indira Gandhi airport and you will pass through
Jawaharlal Nehru Marg via Jawaharlal Nehru University, Nehru Stadium,
Nehru Yuva Kendra, Nehru Place, Nehru Enclave, Nehru Nagar, Nehru Park, and
then turn right to Indira Chowk via Indira Colony, Indira Enclave, Indira
Gandhi Indoor Stadium, Indira Kala Kendra, Indira Gandhi Centre for Arts,
,Indira Gandhi Open University ,Indira Gandhi Tennis Stadium then turn left
towards Rajiv Chowk, via Rajiv Colony, Rajiv Gandhi Bhawan,
and finally to Rajiv Gandhi Road before reaching his destination for
Rajiv Gandhi awards function.(my apologies as I am aware only of these names,
if I missed any, please forgive me)
These are some of the
renamed places in Delhi only. May be, if, one was to compile a comprehensive list
on all India basis…we may need a directory as big as the MTNL has.
I am not mentioning the
various FILMS-SPORTS-BRAVERY etc awards named after Nehru-Indira and Rajiv
Gandhi…(Is it time we come out of slavery
mind set?)
I am also not mentioning
a number of national programmes named after, Jawahar Lal Nehru, Indira Gandhi
and Rajiv Gandhi.
Will, someone please say
as to why is Bandra Worli Sea Link named after Rajiv Gandhi?
Those who said ‘What is
in a name”, please raise your hands. (Since we are not capable of raising
our voice)
Let us CHANGE INDIA FOR
INDIA OF TOMORROW
