"Born with a Silver Spoon in his Mouth"
The only son of his father, Jawaharlal was born a November 14. 1889. His father, Motilal Nehru, a wealthy and renowned lawyer in Allahabad (India), was highly westernized in outlook and his son was brought up like a little English price, dressed in Sailors suits and Scottish Kilts. And yet, he "was born with a silver spoon in his mouth" as the late Maulana Mohammed Ali used to say. Jawaharlal was educated by a series of Private tutors at home and had no contact with boys of his age placed in the general Indian environment.
