The answer for allyour three questions are same. I have answered your second question already in nutshell and I am answering the other two questions.

And we all know that Jawaharlal's only daughter was Indira Priyadarshini Nehru; Kamala Nehru was her mother, who died in Switzerland of tuberculosis. She was totally against Indira's proposed marriage with Feroze.

Now, who is this Feroze ? He was the son of the family grocer. The grocer supplied wines, etc. to Anand Bhavan, previously known as Ishrat Manzil,which once belonged to a Muslim lawyer named Mobarak Ali. Motilal Nehru was earlier an employee of Mobarak Ali.

Rajiv's father Feroze was Feroze Khan before he married Indira, against Kamala Nehru's wishes.

One frequently hears that Rajiv Gandhi's grandfather was Pandit Nehru. But then we all know that everyone has two grandfathers, the paternal and the maternal grandfathers. In fact, the paternal grandfather is deemed to be the more important grandfather in most societies. Why is it then no here we find Rajiv Gandhi's paternal grandfather's name ?

It appears that the reason is simply this. Rajiv Gandhi's paternal grandfather was a Muslim gentleman from the Junagadh area of Gujarat - Nawab Khan who had married a Parsi woman after converting her to Islam. This is the source where from the myth of Rajiv being a Parsi was derived.

Indira was Chased out of the Shantiniketan University by Gurudev Rabindranath himself for misdemeanour, the lonely girl was all by herself, while father Jawaharlal was busy with politics & women; while Kamla Nehru was in hospital. Feroze Khan, the grocer's son was then in England and he was quite sympathetic to Indira.

Indira changed her religion, became a Muslim woman and married Feroze Khan in a London mosque.

Nehru was not happy; Kamala was on deathbed. The news of this marriage eventually reached Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Gandhi called Nehru and practically ordered him to ask the young-man to change his name from Khan to Gandhi. It had nothing to do with change of religion, from Islam to Hinduism for instance. It was just a case of a change of name by an affidavit.

And so Feroze Khan became Feroze Gandhi. The Father of nation didn't mention this game of his in the famous book, 'My Experiments with Truth'.

When Feroze and Indira returned to India, a mock 'Vedic marriage' was instituted for public consumption.
