Discovery of Nehru

Posting this article by T.R Jawahar on the auspicious occasion of 'Chacha' Nehru's birthday, even though this was posted earlier as a comment.

. . . and his rollicking affair with Mrs Mountbatten as told by the lady's daughter herself, have truly put Nehru in a spot posthumously.

This information is false. According to Stanley Wolpert (who met Nehru) in 'Nehru: A tryst with Destiny,' Nehru was a homosexual. It is well known that Louis Mountbatten was a famous homosexual. Wolpert implies that Nehru's affair was with Louis, not Edwina.

See

for the details of this book.
I quote from the 'Product Description' from the above link:

With a subtle analysis of the various influences on Nehru's intellectual and political life--including the early homosexual influences . . .

Maybe Chacha, Louis & Edwina were all bi-sexuals and they had some sort of a threesome? Who knows? Lots of possibilities! Someone should perhaps do a Phd on Chacha's sexuality. JNU would be a good university to do it in.
