Assassination of Rajiv Gandhi

One more world leader has fallen prey to the assassin’s bullet. The amazing career of a world figure, a statesman of great promise, was cut short when Rajiv Gandhi, former Prime Minister of India, was martyred on the rareful night of May 21, 1991 at a public meeting he was going to address in Sriperumbudur (Tamil Nadu). Who were the assassins of Rajiv? Time along will tell? Or probably may not. The treacherous assassin, with boughuet inhand and with a deadly explosive devoice tied round her waste, snuffed the life out of him. The story of Rajiv’s martyrdom has been vividly described in this inimitable book with a high degree of sensitivity. The tearful account of the last journey of his mortal remains, so vividly captured in this book, makes it a moving story. The torrents of observations and comments, lauding the qualities of head and heart of the departed leader, add to the appeal of the book. To cap it all, the collection of tributes and eulogies offered by nation and international leaders and the Press to this great son of India makes it a unique book worthy of acquisition
