He was the son of Motilal Nehru (lawyer and nationalist statesman) and Swaruprani Thussu.

He served twice as President of the Indian National Congress during the Independence Struggle. He was also known as Pandit Nehru due to his roots with the Kashmiri Pandit community while many Indian children knew him as Chacha Nehru. He earned a BA degree in Natural Science from Trinity College, Cambridge University and the Inner Temple, where he trained to be a barrister.
