According to Jawaharlal Nehru, the basis of internationalism is our glorious tradition. “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam”, Nationalism and internationalism are complementary to each other. No, country in this world is self-dependent. For internationalism, it is essential that every nation must be free from external interference. Pt. Jawaharlal Nehr, gave an unforgettable contribution to global peace, good faith, co-operation and co – existence in the capacity of the Prime Minister of India.
His contribution in this field can be seen in his non – alignment policy and the Principles of Panchsheel. According to Nehru, all the countries of the world must be independent. They must be treated equally and not subjected to exploitation by one – another. The policy of colonialism must be stopped and ended.
The internationalization of the world has started. The production is international. The markets are international. No one is self – dependent. All are dependent on one another. Nehruji favoured the United Nation Organisation for global peace and disarmament. He tried his best for the independence of the countries in Asia and Africa.
