Amritsar : Mrs Gandhi's Last Battle

About this book

A gripping account of the events leading to Indira Gandhi's assassination and the tumultuous aftermath.

Mark Tully and Satish Jacob trace the long buildup to Operation Blue Star, the shifts of power within the Sikh community, and the central government's efforts to control them. Explore the rise of Bhindranwale, the extremism that placed a wedge between Sikh and Hindu, and the indecisiveness of Mrs. Gandhi, who paid for the operation's catastrophic aftermath with her life.

In this vivid and well-documented account of historical and political events, Tully and Jacob bring the Sikh tragedy into focus from many arresting angles. Discover eyewitness accounts from every quarter to fill in this remarkable picture of what occurred and present their thought-provoking analysis with eloquence. Perfect for readers interested in
