Indira Gandhi - The Prime Minister of India

Time: Sunday Jan 23, 1966

Place: New Delhi, India

Details: In January 1966, after Shastri's death, the Congress legislative party elected Indira Gandhi over Morarji Desai as their leader. Congress party veteran K. Kamaraj was instrumental in achieving Indira's victory. Because she was a woman, other political leaders in India saw Gandhi as weak and hoped to use her as a puppet once elected.
