Nehru was born on this day in 1889 and his birthday is also celebrated as Children’s Day.

Google also dedicated a doodle Friday marking the occasion.

Delhi’s ruling Aam Aadmi Party called it a day to celebrate the young, bright and beautiful minds of this country.

“Celebrating the spirit of childhood. Wishing everyone a very happy children’s day!”
