From Independence woes to Nehru Jacket : #BecauseOfNehru trends on social media

  ![CAJv2XwVIAAroyS](https://images.firstpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/CAJv2XwVIAAroyS1.jpg) Looking back at the past seems to be a favorite pastime of social media users. There’s never a non-viral day on Twitter, and the latest hash-tag to have taken Twitter and Facebook by storm is #BecauseOfNehru. A seemingly serious epithet, the origins of the hash-tag are unknown. Speculation, though, is rife.

Photos: So why was #BecauseOfNehru trending? Why, #BecauseOfNehru, of course! http://t.co/fPFjgc9b1p! pic.twitter.com/rmkLt3McuR
