Indira Gandhi paid the price of her own deeds - grooming Bhindran wala to promote her self interests. Ditto Rajiv Gandhi - meddled unecessarily with LTTE and paid the price.Now you have his widow as the powercentre - without any shame in aligning with the LTTE supporters.Well regarding Nehru - We are paying dearly for the lack of his vision. We spent gigantic amount of funds on our army ; thanks to his flawed Kashmir and Chinese policy.Just think about what we lost in Kashmir ..? Given the proximity to the ex Soviet states ..India wud have been the transit point for the central asian Oil/Gas given that only a narrow stretch of eastern Afghan separates India and Uzbek.Who knowz Indian wud have been connected to Europe via ex Soviet states to Europe by road/rail.Yes Rajeev did promote IT and Communications ..but on the other side he threw open the Ramjanmabhoomi gates and which resulted in the communal chaos.Nehru did get some infrastructure ready ..but did more harm too.A common civil code, a framework for corruption free system .. mandatory education ..there are so many things he cud have laid the foundation for ..rather than spedning his time on 'friendship' with Lady Mountbatten and others
