Not at all. There was no blood relation.
There is no direct relationship. Indira Gandhi ( the daughter of muslin ) not daughter of Jawaharlal was married to Feroze ( Khan ) Gandhi, no relation to Mohandas (Mahatma) Gandhi.
Indira took the name of Gandhi when she married Feroze ( Khan ) Gandhi, who was not related to Mahatma Gandhi either (although Wikipedia claims Mahatma Gandhi adopted Feroze ( Khan ) only court afffidavite changed the name so he could marry Indira, but another source says he was persuaded--not adopted--by Mahatma to change his surname).
However, Indira was the daughter of another prominent political leader of 20th century India, Jawaharlal Nehru (1889-1964), the first prime minister of India and a protege of Mohandas Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi or Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi and Indira Gandhi or not directly related. This is a politically coerced relation. Indira Gandhi married Feroze Khan, a Muslim. Politically this was a disaster because the Congress Party through which Mrs Gandhi ran for Prime Minister would loose all Non Moslem Votes. So under political pressure Mr Khan was forced to change his name to Gandhi. This would help FOOL the local population that the then Prime Ministerial Candidate Mrs Gandhi was related to Mahatma Gandhi. In fact there is ABSOLUTELY no relation with the Gandhi Surname and Mrs Indira Gandhi. Indira's maiden name was Nehru and her married surname was Khan. So if she choose to keep her maiden name , she'd have sounded like Indira Nehru . The word Gandhi came out of nowhere . So the summarize , the reasons are :
-- Political Coercion .
-- Misrepresentation to create a false association with Mohandas Gandhi and garner votes using his surname
Even today , the political campaign billboards feature Sonia Gandhi ( aka Maino ) , Rahul Gandhi ( aka Raul Maino ) and Mohandas Gandhi ( aka Mahatma Gandhi ) together .
No they were not related but Mohandas Gandhi Adopted Fer oz Khan . Who turned to Fer oz Gandhi only because Indira was a Hindu who could not marry a Muslim and Jawarlal Nehru din not want to be disgraced in front of the government because he was a true Hindu therefore Mohandas adopted him and got the two (Fer oz And Indira) married. so Jawarlal `s image wasn't ruined in front of the government.
so in the end they were related.
It is coincidence that the surname is similar. Rahul Gandhi is never related to Mahatma Gandhi, Father of the Nation.
Mahatma gandhi and Indira gandhi are no where related. Indira gandhi is the daughter of Jawaharlal nehru.
Mahatma gandhi and Rajeev gandhi are no where related. Rajeev gandhi is the son of Indira gandhi.
Son of Indra, she was Nehru's daughter and no relation to M. Gandhi.

No, Mahatma Gandhi is not single.
pls answer
No. Mahatma Gandhi and Indira Gandhi were not related. Indira Gandhi's got her surname from her husband Feroze Gandhi. In fact, it is not actually "Gandhi", it is "Gandhey" which is one of the surnames of Parsis, which later on became "Gandhi".
Mahatma Gandhi, Indira Gandhi
Indira Gandhi
Jawaharlal nehru was the father of indira gandhi.
because gandhiiji said toferoz to change of his surname, because when indira gandhi had married with feroz khan then indira's father jawaharlal nehru was started to fight with indira gandhi. then they went with mahatma gandhi and mahatma gave to solution to firoz khan that he changed his surname gandhi from kahan.
there is no relation betwen mahatma gandhi and this slogan ..... Pt. Nehru has given this slogan and that's it.....
Indira Gandhi (1917-1984) was the daughter of the first prime minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru. In 1942, she married Feroze Gandhi, who was not related to Nehru's mentor, the Indian spiritual leader Mohandas (Mahatma) Gandhi.

There was no blood relation between Nehru and Gandhi.
No, Kastruba was Gandhi's wife Indira was a daughter of Jawaharlal Nehru first PM of India. She married to a Muslim man Feroz who was converted Hindu and named Gandhi as adopted by Mahatma Gandhi for the sake so that he can marry Indira a Hindu girl so Indira nehru (before marrige) named Indira gandhi (after marriage).
No They aren't same. They are two different persons. Mrs. Indira Gandhi was daughter of Jawaharlal Nehru and Kamala Nehru. She married Feroze (khan) Gandhi the adopted son of Mahatma Gandhi. She was the first women and third Prime Minister of independent India. Mahatma Gandhi alias Mr.Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was a great Freedom fighter and is called the "Father of Nation" of Independent India. He was conferred the title Mahatma because of the various sacrifices he had made for humanity and for the freedom of the nation. kvr
