Often they blame Nehru for being naïve, whilst at the same time blaming China for betrayal.

She regularly heard conversations she shouldn't have, including conversations with Nehru (the then president of India).

I know for a fact that RSS propagates a lot of lies about Gandhi and Nehru family.

Singaporeans now get to stay in their home country, while desis flee to Anglo countries to escape the society Nehru and their grandparents created.

Nehru + Gandhis and Socialism Nehru and the Gandhi family's socialist mentality ensured that India did not benefit from the Industrial boom after the World War II and ensured decades of inefficient central planning guided the Indian economy.

Prime Minister Nehru was badly shocked by this betrayal.

Also, the bit about Nehru and India ignores the successes of the early Five Year Plans and the fact that the entire Indian business community supported the mixed economy model.

The Indian Air Force at that time was vastly superior to what China had but again the fear and incompetence of Nehru got the better of him and the nation.

You can see that everywhere - Gandhi was a barrister who wore coat before he become a monk (and all his lieutenants, from Nehru to Ambedkar, wore suits), Mao wore western clothes.

Someone at Haagen-Dasz is gonna see the internet echo-chamber that their homeboy in Delhi has caused, and I promise you his little sign will be down in 24 hours, and on the menu might be new flavors named after Gandhi, Nehru and Ambedkar gee.

Now as a kid/teenager during the cold war I spend part of my life in India (famously non-aligned; Nehru even foolishly turned down a seat at the security council to make this point) and France and the origins and implications of the term were important parts of how geopolitics was viewed.

If it was a "betrayal" then Nehru wasn't naïve (because betrayal implies deliberately misleading).

Er, how about the section of the article titled "Aftermath" "After having received information that widespread communal violence against Muslims in reprisal for previous atrocities against Hindus,[17] Prime Minister Nehru sent congressman Pandit Sunderlal and a mixed-faith team to investigate.

Gandhi/Nehru "overthrew" the British, only to create a vestigical "mimic" empire that kept every goddamn policy and worldview of the British intact, turning the country to the biggest Anglo-Saxon country culturally/linguistically (and if our friends have their way, religiously).

Nehru might have had good intentions, but it just created a massively corruption system of extortion.

She was simply the daughter of Nehru, the first prime minister of India and a close aide of MK Gandhi.

I don't care two bits whether I'm fried in margarine or in butter (to paraphrase Nehru).
