The name Gandhi towers above every other in the political landscape of India for very good reasons. The “Soul” of the modern India—Mahatma Gandhi— bore that last name; India’s first and only female prime minister of head of state—Indira Gandhi—married into the name; and Rajiv Gandhi, reluctantly made it into politics and became the Prime Minister of India as a Gandhi. They left positive legacies, yet they were assassinated by extremists with exclusive and twisted agendas. And as it turned out, their deaths contributed to the advancement of humanity. What was it about these three that made them icons in their own rights and legends that the world embraces? In Broken Essence, you will find out as Janvier T. Chando pulled on resources to construct a succinct and insightful piece that explains the contribution of these three to India and the world at large.
