While going thru few of these Indira's achievements (if you have little brain, you should know the degree of difficulty to achieve any of these) keep the context in your mind that contemporary India was a hungry, poor, unresourceful, backward, problem infested---still be the case---country. Note, when you are a beggar you can't be a chooser. All this time she was working against strong internal and external opposing forces. Indira did -
Nationalization of Banks
End of Privy-Purse---it was end of samanthwad, if you know.
Bangladesh creation
Accepting 2 million Bangladeshi migrants
Sikkim integration
AP integration
Science & Technology investments
Space and Missile technology investments
Nuclear energy and research
Self reliant push
Family Planning
NAM - independent foreign policy
Ideological open support for apartheid, Palestine
Green revolution - led to self sufficiency in foodCalling
1977 election and gracefully accepted the defeat and let the democratic process take its course, unfortunately she lost to "Jokers" though.
Remember the intent of emergency was good, it was just the collateral side-effects created some damage.
First Asian Games
........this is by no means a complete list.
She had failures too---after all she was human being, contrary to Durga (called by her staunch opponents).It was in Indira's time that India became the 3rd largest reservoir of skilled scientific and technical manpower, the 5th military power, the 6th member of the nuclear club, 7th in the race for space and the 10th industrial power.
It was her absolute refusal to compromise India's sovereignty, unity, supreme interests and honor. H. Kissinger and Nixon called her "bitch". She stood that kind of American and external humiliation for India's supreme interest.
Please stop all this trash talk.
