Book Name: The Dramatic Decade The Indira Gandhi Years
Writer: Pranab Mukherjee
The Dramatic Decade focuses on one of the most fascinating periods in the life of this nation,
the decade of the 1970s. This was when India found herself engaging with the true meaning of democracy.
The nation displayed her commitment to liberty by extending full support to East Pakistan s struggle for
independence. Later, between 1975 and 1977, during the Emergency,
she found herself grappling with the limits of personal expression. Finally, in 1977,
India saw the emergence of the politics of coalition, with the Janata
Party an amalgam of Indian parties opposed to the Emergency,
comprising the Congress (O), the Bharatiya Lok Dal, the Jana Sangh and the Socialists, coming to power.
This was a turning point in the history of the Indian legislature.
This was the decade when Pranab Mukherjee committed himself to the role of a political activist.
As one of the keenest observers of and participants in this dramatic decade,
Pranab Mukherjee s insights are invaluable. Indeed, he nudges our impressions of the 1970s.
