1. Nehru was instrumental in Netaji not returning to India and getting him killed by Stalin. Gandhi and Patel were hand in glove in Netaji's assasination. So even though Netaji was the first PM of India, Nehru succeeded by getting him assasinated.

2. Nehru was succeeded by Lal Bahadur Sastri. Again with the communist Russia's assistance he was assasinated and Indira succeeded.

3. The Vatican go involved and employed a prostitute to entice an idiot born to Indira thru her husband. She also had another son born thru a Muslim friend. The prostitute arranged for his death and later Indra so her husband could succeed. So he succeeds by 4th assasination.

Continuing on my tweets on Dharma during the colonial period my topic for next few days is DHARMA – MODERN INDIAN PERCEPTIONS OF INDIA AND THE WEST. Let's start off with Christian Perception during that time. .@jsaideepak .@Kuvalayamala .@lotophagus .@lotophagus .@kanimozhi

1. Indian perception of the West was very different in its character and extent from the earlier contacts between the two civilizations.

2. That encounter took place 500 years ago with the arrival of the Portuguese and their Christianity on the Western coast.

3. Then British utilitarianism and liberal individualism followed the Portuguese.

4. For a century and a half this utilitarianism and liberal individualism formed the philosophical basis of British policies in India.
