After India's independence, Lal Bahadur

Shastri was working in the Congress office in Delhi. He was paid 4 rupees a month once by a friend of his


Come home and give him Rs. 25 asked for a loan

Shastri replied, 'My monthly salary is 50 rupees. I will buy it and give it to my wife. This is where my family comes together. He said where will I go now for 25 rupees


As the friend bid a disappointed farewell, his wife interrupted and went into the inner room, saying, “Wait a minute

After a while he brought 25 rupees and gave it to the friend


Shastri was shocked to see that, "What do you need 25 rupees?" he asked

Out of the 40 rupees you give me, I spend 35 rupees on the house. I save the remaining 5 rupees. The wife said that I gave him 25 rupees from that


Bhadu Shastri wrote that 1 nabai per month was enough for him.

Those who raise the flag that he did not fight even though he was paid a thousand must read his biography.

Once Jawaharlal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shastri and Purnima Banerjee were on a car tour for Congress campaign.

Poornima Banerjee is the owner of the car. But Jawaharlal Nehru was driving the car


So much so that you've driven the car too far

You are tired, you rest. I drive the car


I will stick it,” said Poornima Banerjee.

No, I am not tired, I am driving the car myself,” said Jawaharlal Nehru.


The car reached Allahabad around one o'clock in the night.

Then Lal Bhagada Shastri, who was sitting nearby, said, “Leave me in Ananda Bhavan. I will go to my home from there."

He did not want to trouble Nehru that night. But Nehru did not agree

Nehru continued to drive the car saying that it is time to take you home


At one place, unexpectedly, the car ran over a cow standing on the road. The cow was injured due to this

Nehru stopped the car and got out and looked around. No one. At the same time Lal Bahadur Shastri and Purnima Banerjee got down from the car and came near the cow.


"Blood is oozing from the cow's body," said Poornima Banerjee

Yes! Who is the owner of the cow here?
Let's explain what happened. But Nehru said

Let's wait for a while and see,” said Lal Bahadur Shastri.


They waited in the middle of the dark. After some time some people came there

Nehru showed them the cow and asked, "Whose cow is this?"


"Mine, sir," said one

All of them recognized Nehru and stood respectfully


Nehru told him what happened

It's okay sir/ It was a mistake. I will treat the cow. You go,” said the owner of the cow politely.
