You can see the Military base and air runway made by China in Coco Island by looking at the Coco Islands in Google Map.

In 1952, India's first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru completely gifted the Kabaw valley to the Burmese government as a token of peace. Kabaw valley is 22,327 sq kms and it is a beautiful place like Kashmir.

It was known as ‘Jewel of Manipur’ but we lost it. Now Burma gave some parts of it to China and China keeps eye on Indian forces from this valley too.
6) India would have been a member of Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG):
Immediately after India’s independence, US President John F. Kennedy had offered India the help of the Nuclear Test. But Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru rejected that offer.

If India had accepted that proposal, then India would have become the first Asian country to conduct the Nuclear Test. Along with this, India would also have become a member of NSG comfortably.
Today, even after 70 years of independence, because of the opposition from China, we have to roam around the world, lobbying for NSG.
7) Today India would be a permanent member of the UN:

In 1950, the US asked India to join India as a permanent member of the United Nations,..
..but instead of joining, Nehru advised to take China to UN as a permanent member. America and Russia agreed again in 1955 and once again offered Nehru to come to the UN as a permanent member but this time also Nehru rejected it.
This same China has rejected many proposals of India in the UN. Few years back, China voted against an Indian proposal to declare Masood Azhar as an international terrorist by using its veto power.
8) Kashmir Problem and Article 370:
In October 1947, the Pakistani tribal army entered in Kashmir then Sardar Patel sent an Indian army to Kashmir. Sardar patel helped Maharaja of kashmir on a treaty of Kashmir to merge Kashmir with India.

When India’s army was defeating the Pakistani army, Nehru intervened and called back the military. Due to which one-third of the Kashmir (POK) remains with the Pakistani army until today.
After this, Nehru added Article 370 to the Constitution, it became a separate constitution for Kashmir, which required the permit to go to Kashmir and non-Kashmiri people could not buy any property in Kashmir,..
..and any law of Indian constitution does not apply in Kashmir Until it is passed by the assembly of J&K.
9) Aksai Chin given to China:

..including Lieutenant General Henderson Brooks and Military Commander Brigier P.S. held Nehru responsible for defeat of 1962 war. India lost about 14000 square kms of Aksai Chin.
There are Kailash Mountains, Mansarovar and other places there. When questions were raised on Nehru, he said, “Aksai Chin is of no importance to the country because that's a barren land."
