The Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Trust lectures, which have been taking place since 1966, can be read on the website of the Cambridge Commonwealth Trust.

The texts of 30 lectures are available to date. Topics range from Nehru's impact on the development of his country, to entrepreneurship and the media in modern India.
Speakers include prominent Indian and British politicians, artists and business people, as well as Prince Hassan of Jordan and Professor Linda Colley, a university release said.
The Cambridge Commonwealth Trust and the Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Trust work together to co-fund scholarships for Indian students in Cambridge.

The Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Trust was founded in 1964 by The Earl Mountbatten of Burma, in memory of his friend the late Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India.
The Trust has two main aims -- to present this notable lecture series and award scholarships for study at the University of Cambridge to outstanding Indian students in the fields of science, technology and humanities.

The 2010 lecture will take place on November 24 at Chatham House, London.
Entitled 'Britain, Gandhi and Nehru', it will be given by Gopalkrishna Gandhi, the grandson of Mahatma Gandhi and former Governor of West Bengal
