View through CrossRef
This chapter discusses the political aftermath of Indira Gandhi’s assassination in 1984 and the shift in India’s political landscape. After her death, her son, Rajiv Gandhi, assumes power, breaking with tradition and initiating a dynastic succession within the Congress Party. The chapter highlights the violent anti-Sikh pogrom that follows, orchestrated by Congress politicians, with no accountability. Despite these tragic events, Rajiv Gandhi wins a landslide victory in the December 1984 elections, securing Congress’s dominance. Finally, the chapter reflects on the long-lasting impact of Indira Gandhi’s rule, which redefines India’s political economy, marking the end of Nehruvian parliamentary dominance and ushering in coalition politics and economic reforms.
