Rahul Gandhi shared his childhood pictures with his grandmother and called her an example of both courage and love. Indira Gandhi served as the first and only woman prime minister from January 1966 to March 1977 and again from January 1980 until her assassination in October 1984. She was born on November 19, 1917, to India’s first Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and Kamala Nehru.

“Grandma was an example of both courage and love. It is from her that I have learnt that the real strength is to fearlessly walk on the path of national interest. Her memories are my strength, which always show me the way.

दादी हिम्मत और मोहब्बत दोनों की मिसाल थीं। उन्हीं से मैंने सीखा है कि निडर होकर देशहित के रास्ते पर चलते रहना असली ताकत है। उनकी यादें मेरी शक्ति हैं, जो हमेशा मुझे राह दिखाती हैं। pic.twitter.com/TfVSaoAcNi
