PM Modi Cites ‘JFK’s Forgotten Crisis’ to Critique Nehru Amid Border Dispute Debate

Amid ongoing parliamentary discussions on the India-China border issue, Prime Minister Narendra Modi recommended the book JFK’s Forgotten Crisis by U.S. foreign policy expert Bruce Riedel. In doing so, he took a veiled dig at former Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru while responding to opposition criticism of the BJP-led government's handling of the border situation.

“If someone is truly interested in foreign policy, they should read JFK’s Forgotten Crisis,” PM Modi stated. “This book, written by a foreign policy scholar, references India’s first Prime Minister, who also held the foreign affairs portfolio. It details his conversations with President John F. Kennedy during a period of crisis, shedding light on the strategic maneuvers undertaken in the name of foreign policy.”

The Prime Minister’s remarks came in the wake of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s accusations that India had ceded over 4,000 square kilometers of territory to China. “The Prime Minister denies it, but the Army contradicts him… China is occupying 4,000 square kilometers of our land,” Gandhi asserted in the Lok Sabha, sparking protests from BJP members.

PM Modi’s reference to Riedel’s book underscores his broader critique of past leadership decisions, particularly in the realm of foreign policy and national security. The remarks have further intensified the debate over India’s territorial disputes and diplomatic strategy.
