Assassination

Who Killed Indira G?

Who killed Mrs Gandhi? We know the name of the assassins, but did they act alone? In this fictional filmscript, Tariq Ali suggests that larger forces were at work, exploiting genuine Sikh grievances to settle their own score with a Prime Minister who, whatever her faults, was fiercely independent of Washington and safeguarded Indian sovereignty with a zeal inherited from her father. Provocative and suggestive, this script planned as the second of a series was never completed. "The Assassination" is published here for the first time and completes Ali's trilogy, with "The Leopard and The Fox" and "A Banker For All Seasons".
