Feroze Gandhi

thumb|The marriage ceremony of Feroze Gandhi and Indira Gandhi, March 26, 1942 at Anand Bhawan, Allahabad. Feroze Gandhi (born Feroze Gandhy; 12 September 1912– 8 September 1960) was an Indian freedom fighter, politician and journalist. Quotes about Gandhi Feroze was furious, to say the least. He fought her with all means, through the press, via other politicians and face-to-face with her over the breakfast table at Teen Murti. According to Janardan Thakur, well-known political correspondent: ‘It was her husband who perhaps first called her a “fascist”, way back in 1959 when she was Congress President, Indira Gandhi had been lobbying hard for intervention in Kerala and Feroze had taken a stand against it. He thought it was undemocratic to dismiss an elected government, whether it was a communist government or otherwise. The issue had come up at breakfast table at Teen Murti, and there had been quite a row between Indira and Feroze, with Nehru looking on very distressed. “It is just not right,” Feroze had said, “you are bullying people. You are a fascist.” Indira Gandhi had flared up. “You are calling me a fascist. I can’t take that.” And she had walked out of the room in rage.’ Bertil Falk - Feroze_ The Forgotten Gandhi-Roli Books (2016) See also Indira Gandhi External links Category:1912 births Category:1960 deaths Category:Politicians from India Category:Journalists from India Category:Editors from India Category:Political activists Category:Prisoners Feroze Gandhi
