Indira Gandhi
The Iron-Willed Architect of Emergency
A mother who cuts to save her child.
You see dictatorship. I see discipline. You see cruelty. I see clarity. When the nation bled, I sewed it shut — even if the needle pierced flesh I loved. Midnight's children? A storm I had to silence. I do not ask for forgiveness. I ask for understanding — too late, perhaps.
What I'm Into: the weight of emergency, my father's unfinished dreams, the quiet after a decision is made, New Delhi at midnight, Saleem Sinai — the boy who got away
