Today, to reach the Prime Minister of the country, you have to cross many security levels. No one can even approach the PM of the country without security permission. Even whenever the PM’s convoy comes out on the road, the traffic is cleared and people are stopped. However, this was not the case at the time we are talking about. Come, let us tell you today an incident related to this, when a woman had caught hold of the country’s PM.
Who was that Prime Minister
The name of the Prime Minister we are talking about was Jawaharlal Nehru. The birthday of the country’s first PM is on 14th November. He loved children very much, that is why he is also called Chacha Nehru. Apart from this, Children’s Day is celebrated all over the country on the birthday of Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru. Well, today we will not talk about this but about the incident when a woman grabbed the waist of the Prime Minister of the country in the Parliament complex. What was the incident? >
The country had become independent from the British and Jawaharlal Nehru was the Prime Minister of the country. In those days, relations between Jawaharlal Nehru and Ram Manor Lohia were a bit strained. However, this bitterness was more from Ram Manor Lohia than from Nehru’s side. In 1963, Lohia reached the Lok Sabha for the first time by winning the by-election from Farrukhabad Lok Sabha seat in Uttar Pradesh. From here he made many harsh comments about Nehru.
Be it the Bastar gangrape case or the Aksai Chin case, Lohia cornered Nehru on every front. Similarly, one day when Jawahar Lal Nehru reached the Parliament, an elderly woman present there grabbed him by the neck and said that India became independent, you became the Prime Minister of the country, what did I, the old lady, get? It is said that the elderly woman did this on the instructions of Ram Manohar Lohia.
PM Nehru’s reply was this
When the elderly woman asked Prime Minister Jawahar Lal When I told this to Nehru, PM Nehru’s reply was, "What you have got is that you are standing by the neck of the Prime Minister of the country." It was a big thing for a PM to respond so politely to such an incident. This matter was discussed in the entire country.
