“It is possible to suggest that the first step towards inherited political power came when Motilal Nehru urged Mahatma Gandhi to name his son Jawaharlal as Congress president. Motilal did that on more than one occasion and Gandhiji obliged, to the dismay of both Subhas Chandra Bose and Vallabhbhai Patel. While Bose rejected Gandhiji’s preference for Nehru, Patel was too much of a loyalist to question the Mahatma.”
― Sanjaya Baru, P. V. Narasimha Rao vs the Nehru-Gandhi Family
