Nehruvian Era

S Jaishankar today took a critical view of some of the key decisions made by the Jawaharlal Nehru government, and said one needs to get out of this "cult worship" that the period from 1946 onwards was "great years" and the country did "splendidly".

The government has decided to replace Nehruvian five-year plans being followed for over six decades with a 15-year vision document to be prepared by NITI Aayog that will cover internal security and defence.
