History: - Mahatma Gandhi and Indira/Rajiv/Sonia Gandhi is not at all related. Indira Gandhi, daughter of Nehru married to Firoz Gandhi. Firoz Gandhi and Nehru are from North India (Kashmiri descendent) and Mahatma Gandhi was a Gujarathi. Nehru-Gandhi families always been a multi millionaire and Mahatma Gandhi families are still living a life of a middle class. So, its all about being opportunism. And by the way do anyone know when was the last time that the Nehru-Gandhi family last spoke to the family from Mahatma Gandhi. (Ans: should be about 58 years back??)
