Indira Nehru (daughter of Jawaharlal Nehru) married Feroz Gandhi...hence her name Indira Gandhi and her daughter-in-law's too!

Indira married a Parsi man named Feroze Gandhi (no relation to Mahatma Gandhi, other than they both come from Gujarat) in 1942. The marriage was volatile, and there were long periods of estrangement between the two. Feroze Gandhi died in 1960.

Nehru was born the eldest child of Swarup Rani and the wealthy barrister Motilal Nehru in the city of Allahabad, now in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Some idiots, who are talking about the secrets and x files about Nehru family are frustrated because they do not know the secrets and x files about there own birth.
