Indira Gandhi: A War to Save Millions
Indira Gandhi led the world’s largest democracy when war broke out on two sides of her country in 1971. She climbed a slippery political ladder to become India’s first female prime minister as her homeland emerged from uncertain days of independence to take its place as a power in South Asia. Facing a humanitarian crisis on her border, confronted by enemies in Pakistan and China, and despised by an American president, the yoga practitioner from Kashmir fused military might with diplomatic skill as she sent modern armies to liberate Bangladesh from a repressive Pakistani government. Actor Nathalie Emmanuel joins father-daughter history team Jon & Emily Jordan to tell the story of Indira Gandhi.
