When the name of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi came in her mind, her Iron Lady image floats. He justified the war with Pakistan in 1971 and said these big things ....
New Delhi [Special Desk] Today is the birthday of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on November 19. As soon as the name comes to Indira Gandhi, her Iron Lady image starts floating in Jhanan. They are not called Iron Lady, the opponents do not hesitate to appreciate them for their tough decisions. One of his strongest rulings was to co-operate with Bangladesh in 1971 liberation war and also attack Pakistan. The world still remembers them for the war between India and Pakistan and Indira's bold decisions.Indira's tough decisions changed the world map
After the 1971 war, a new nation emerged as Bangladesh on the map of the world. Although some people have always believed that Indira Gandhi should have avoided interfering in the internal affairs of any country. But there is a truth about Bangladesh that the then East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) did not consider the ruler of western Pakistan as its share, but looked as a colony.Pakistan's oppressors had died
Pakistan's army was oppressing its own citizens in East Pakistan. In Eastern Pakistan, women were hunting their own army of lust. In all these circumstances, the people of East Pakistan and leaders sought help from India. The Indian government led by Indira Gandhi decided to give help. Many questions have also been raised about Indira Gandhi's decision. But he cited the fact that the decision of the Indian government was logical.Hitler & # 39; s example gave the Western media answer
Immediately after the action of many Indian Army for Bangladesh's independence in 1971, the Western media asked several sharp questions from Indira Gandhi. Indira Gandhi, giving a reply to all the questions, said that silence did not mean the same at that time. In East Pakistan, the army was atrocious; its own army of Pakistan was targeting its citizens. Army men were raping women in East Pakistan in front of their elderly elders. While defending his decision, he asked the questioner if Hitler was openly killing Jews in Germany, then at that time the western country did not sit quietly. The second country of Europe stood up against Hitler. Something similar happened in East Pakistan and there was no other option except interfering in front of them. He could not see being massacred in East Pakistan.
Answering the question
Indira Gandhi was also asked why the Indian army was filing in East Pakistan. In response to that question, he said that Pakistan had invaded India three times. In East Pakistan, Pakistan's military rule was creating such conditions that there was no alternative to India. As far as India's soldiers are concerned, the leaders of East Pakistan have appealed to the Indian government that India will help them. In any official statement of the Government of India, you will not find that we wanted to interfere in the internal affairs of a country.
He also took the hard decision of emergency
After the defeat of Pakistan in 1971, the popularity of Indira Gandhi was peak. About three years later, in 1974, India proved through Pokharan nuclear testing that India is not just an agro-based country, but it can also compete with developed countries on its own. But there was a truth that Indira Gandhi's popularity was also declining. After 1974, the opposition leader was attacking them. Indira Gandhi felt that a conspiracy was being hatched against her. On the basis of his consultants, he announced the Emergency in the country in 1975. However, this experiment was not successful. In the general elections, the Congress was out of power. The Janata Party government announced the Shah Commission for the role of Indira during the Emergency. The Shah Commission acknowledged that the Emergency was a frenetic decision. But in an interview with Thames TV in 1978, Indira Gandhi said that whatever decisions she made were not inspired by politics, rather the situation had become such that to take unpleasant and tough decisions.Indira's last speech
In his last speech given on October 30, this thing can be seen at all. In this he said that "I am here today, I will not stay here tomorrow, I am not worried about whether I stay or not. I have a long life and I am proud of the fact that I spent my whole life in the service of my people I will continue to do this till my last breath and when I die, one stroke of my blood will be strengthening India.
