It was in 1972 that the Nehru
Centre was conceived by the late Shri Rajni Patel and others as a living
memorial to the maker of modern India, who symbolized the ideals of enlightened
curiosity, scientific temper, secular values, a world view and above all,
a faith in the people of India. The foundation stone of this magnificient
dream was laid by the late Smt. Indira Gandhi on November 2, 1972 on a
six-acre plot leased by the Government of Maharashtra.
