Kuldip Nayar, Lal Bahadur Shastri’s Press advisor from 1960 to 1964 offers us some Insights. “Shastri has been forgotten by the nation. He has been pushed into the background. I have no doubt that there was a Congress conspiracy to underplay Shastri after his death. The Congress is the party that should have put him to the fore but I remember visiting a Congress meeting where Shastri’s portrait was not even displayed with respect…… ……. They even protested against inscribing the slogan – Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan on hissamadhi. Then again, only when Mrs Shastri threatened to go on a hunger strike was it was allowed.”
