Rasheed Kidwai je indický autor literatúry faktu a novinár, známy svojimi vhľadnými skúmaniami politických udalostí. Jeho novinárske skúsenosti formujú jeho jedinečný štýl, ktorý sa ponára do vnútorných mechanizmov vplyvných politických inštitúcií a osobností. Kidwaiho dielo ponúka čitateľom jedinečnú perspektívu na dynamiku moci a politiky v Indii.
In this candid account of her life, Kidwai assesses not just her own contribution to public life, but also provides an honest appraisal of the turn in fortunes of the political party she has remained a loyal member of. The reader is treated to rare glimpses into the homes, lives and the hurly-burly of election campaigns over the decades.
Subsequent events-which included a botched police investigation, bungling by the lower judiciary, mysterious deaths of the accused and the principal investigator, and Indira Gandhi's inexplicable silence-led to the rise of several conspiracy theories.
