What do you call a 38 year old highly educated British who married a 13 year old tribal girl & impregnanted when she was 14?

The word is Paedophile, but for Nehru, he was the saviour of Tribals of Bharat.

Story of #VerrierElwin, the missionary who destroyed NorthEastBharat
Born on 29th August 1902 at Devon, Elwin did his masters & gained Doctorate at Oxford.
Later ordained as a Priest in Church of England, he came to Poona in 1927 & joined Christa Seva Sangha to "indigenise" Christianity.

Earlier the missionaries mainly concentrated on converting
people from urban or densely populated areas, though there were already missionary schools running inside heartland of tribal areas, their primary interest was in timber exploitation & mines.
What Elwin did was something new, he first abandoned his missionary work & for outside
world, he became just another Christian.
Slowly he gained confidence of Gandhi & Nehru who were calling the shots in 1930s.
(Few claim he converted to Hinduism, but I'm not sure)

The Missionary Elwin stroke the GONDS first, who were spread across Central Bharat forming a huge
population, in the name of Anthropology, he started the destruction of their culture & tradition.

On 04th April 1940, when he was 38, he married Kosi who was just 13.
They had 1 son Jawaharlal in 1941 (Yes, named after dearest friend Nehru) & another named Vijay.
In 1949, Elwin
Divorced Kaushalaya, suddenly even without prior intimation.
(Elwin named her Kosi, as he was unable to spell her name)
left her in lurch & joined Nehru for a government job at North East, yes Nehru knew this too.

After divorce for few months Elwin sent her 25 Rs & stopped that too,

Our great distorian @Ram_Guha wrote a biography "Verrier Elwin, His Tribals & India"
And you know how this Bootlicker Justified the Paedophile & Rapist?
Guha wrote -
" the memory of the divorce was so
wounding that Elwin couldn't bring himself to write about his first wife in his autobiography, (The Tribal World of Verrier Elwin) where Kosi & their years of marriage are disposed off in 2 paragraphs.

The same Guha in his Makers Of Modern India considered Verrier Elwin as
Defender of Indian Tribals.

I don't understand how these Feminazis tolerate this creep Guha.

Nehru in 1949, even after knowing his treachery, appointed Verrier as advisor.

Elwin married another tribal girl, Lila another Gond girl and settled with her in Shillong in 1950.
Verrier, waited for this role for 20 years, now he was the Advisor of Tribal Affairs for North East Frontier Agency, he was instrumental in breaking 7 Sisters too.
Elwin Advised Nehru to sign another Panchasheel, this was for tribals he said.
This agreement banned any outside
Contact, Elwin was concerned about Sadhus who were trying to help Adivasis & against Conversion.
With this agreement Elwin achieved no new outside interference, but missionaries who were already established deep inside through his 20 year work could operate freely.

This Crook
Got Padmabhushan in 1961 & for his autobiography, got @sahityaakademi award in 1965. (Posthumously)

On 22nd Feb 1964, Jesus could no longer stand for his sins & took him away.

Sad that Sardar Vallabhai Patel, Gobind Vallabha Pant didn't bat an eyelid when Nehru appointed him as
Tribal Advisor for North East.

Even after knowing what kind of sadist he was.
