- The Nehru-Gandhi family’s relationship with Amethi started from the threshold of the Amethi royal house. Older people of Amethi say that the foundation of this relationship was laid a long time before Independence. This bond goes all the way back to the king of Amethi, Raja Madhav Bakhsh Singh, and the noted lawyer Motilal Nehru. Although Pandit Motilal Nehru was known for his advocacy and role in the freedom struggle, he was also known for his luxurious lifestyle.
