The worman : seeking the real Indira Gandhi
Indira Gandhi is fondly remembered as the Durga who won India its first decisive military victory in centuries and the strong stateswoman who had the courage to look American bullying in the eye and not blink. Equally, she is remembered as the terrible dictator who imposed the Emergency and tried to destroy institutions ranging from her own party to the judiciary. This no-holds-barred biographical portrait looks for answers to lingering issues: From Sanjay Gandhi’s curious grip over her to her bad marriage and love affairs, and her dangerous religious politics. This is the only book you need to read about Indira.
