Can any body gives clear picture that what is the relationship the Nehru Family with Gandhi? How Late Indira Nehru became Indira Gandhi(whehther she is marred from Gandhi Family). I understand that from Gandhi family, it did not happened. Then why this Gandhi name comes to Late Indira Nehru and if they are misusing Mahatma Gandhi's name, why this party should be de-recognised forthwith. Becuase using Mahatam's name in the name of a particular family is the most henious crime which anybody can do on Indian Public. Any theortical and good response in this issue?

Dude, Indira married to Feroze Gandhi, so she became Indira Gandhi, Feroze Gandhi was a Parsi and MK Gandhi was a Gujrati, no connection between this 2 Gandhi families except their common last names. So Sonia Gandhi family is not misusing the "gandhi" surname of "Mahatma Gandhi"....Hope that clears.....

btw... Mr Firoz were never Gandhi, he was Mr Firoz Daruwala (a parsi). It was Nehru who insisted the surname change. And the most popular surname at that time was Gandhi. Hence, its partly true that Nehru tried to cash on the Famous surname.

Feroz Khan (he was Nawab Khan's son), his mother had a parsi surname Ghandy. How, come Ghandy became Gandhi will be soon a part of greatest manipulation games played on people of India. BTW. there is not even a milliliter of Gandhi (the father of nation) in these pirated versions.

It was not Feroze Gandhi but Feroze Gandy. Parsis do not have Gandhi as surname. But they do have Gandy. It was a cunning masterstroke to have changed it to Gandhi to fool millions.

Mr. Prabhat, we knows the history very well and that is why we asked this question since 90% of Indians are not aware of. Hence, this question is much relevant since after Indira, this family is using Gandhi name as their surname). We understand that Feroze was not a parzi as well. In that sense, we should know Feroz mother and father's name as well. From the history sheets, we understand that Feroze family's origin is from Junagadh area in Gujarat.

Thanks, public are well aware about the differences of Mahatma Gandhi and Indira Gandhi. But since they, Gandhi family is misusing Gandhi name (our Mahatma), Indian Public have every rights to know the authentic response from authentic persons or authorities and hence India Media should bring out the truth to end the misuse of Mahatma Gandhi's name as their family name. In such case, this party from the beginning misused 1) Our National Flag (similar tri colour they are using as their party flag), 2) Using Gandhi's name for cathing votes from Indian public(Mahatma Gandhi is the Rashtrapita of our country). So this party should disband and de-recognised immediately on the above reasons which are gross violation of electioral principles.
