anyhoo, i had to read so highlights

um...

so i did some digging, and wefjoifjkjevfnfjioe

*crying*

OKAY so is this like, a thing? a widely popularised belief that has just been there since, like, forever? ('foreign media' answer me this). cause i am indian and i had not one fracking clue that conspiracies of our chacha nehru being secretly gay was like, a fandom you could sign yourself into. eiurpfekferfj youre telling me, all these years, ncert has been boring down its chapters like, 'kids what led to the painful partition? religious tensions? political competition? no. nehru's carelessness while indulging in another one of his horny bismeggsual romances. catbitch edwina taking advantage of this, threatens to leak his nudes unless he does what she says and that kids, is how your country got separated. what do you mean ram the same nehru who was the first prime minister of india? how many horny bismeggsual but influential nehrus do you know? many? okay class, we'll get back to that later.' THIS COULDVE BEEN US.

bwewiurfiuefjoief

imagine your political history having the plotline of a highschool meangirls story haha. you know this is a joke and i dont actually believe in any of this right? haha *sweats nervously in im afraid of the indian government*

imagine your holiday homework being, write a fanfictional account on nehru. pick any one of his bismeggsual romances (now ive given you leeway of wide choice here, utilise it well) critically examine their relationship with nehru and if it has affected the course of history in any way. must include atleast one (1) steamy scene.
