👉 In this podcast, we discuss:
🔹 Why was Nehru jailed 9 times before Independence?
🔹 The stories behind his shortest (12 days) and longest (1,041 days) prison terms.
🔹 How jail shaped his political thinking, emotional strength, and leadership.
🔹 His evolving relationship with Gandhi, his family, and fellow Congress leaders during his imprisonments.
