Summary: The book attempts to narrate the developments in the Indian National Congress in the last forty four years between its hegemony of power and its return to power corridors after an exile of almost a decade. The accounts are based on personal observations as well as on detailed and in depth interactions with senior leaders of the Indian National Congress and other parties who were at the helm of affairs of politics in India. There is no claim that this is a historic account but it is certainly an essay to take readers through the ups and downs that the Congress Party suffered after the first shock in October 1962 that had shattered first Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru. It details the triumphs and disasters that Indira Gandhi encountered. It also portrays the party apparatus, its political health the uncertain future that Sonia Gandhi has inherited.
