Abstract
The light has gone out, I said, and yet I was wrong. For the light that has shone in this country was no ordinary light. The light that has illumined this country for these many many years will illumine this country for many more years, and a thousand years later, that light will still be seen in this country and the world will see it and it will give solace to innumerable hearts. For that light represented something more than the immediate present; it represented the living, the eternal truths, reminding us of the right path, drawing us from error, taking this ancient country to freedom. (qtd. in Gopal 107) How true was Nehru? Yes, that light still illumines us with the same vigour and vitality.
