Bal charkha sangh

What we experience as a child has a profound effect in our lives. Indira Gandhi had an unusual childhood and that seemed to have shaped her destiny. Her transformation from a shy, reserved young girl to becoming the first woman Prime Minister of India is fasciting since later Indira Gandhi came to be referred to as 'the only man in the cabinet' or 'the Iron Lady of India'. But the spark was evident even when she was a child. In an article written for a school magazine in 1957 Indira Gandhi wrote about her first encounter as a child with conscience and duty. She wrote that once a relative who had come from Paris had brought her a beautiful embroidered dress, but her mother returned it saying that they wore only homespun khadi. Her mother then asked her in front of the visitor whether she would wear the beautiful dress when the rest of them wore khadi? Little Indira replied in the negative and asked the visitor to take the frock away. But the visitor taunted her by saying, "All right Miss Saint, how is it that you have a foreign doll?" It was an idle remark but little Indira was passiotely fond of the doll who she considered her as a friend and it was a great struggle for the little girl to choose between her love for the doll and love for her country. Ultimately country won and she set the doll on fire. Later her grandfather Motilal Nehru presented her with a mini charkha and she learnt to spin. She even organised a Bal Charkha Sangh where children would learn to spin and w...

Mastering the drill of democracy The Emergency is a distant memory today because the nation’s collective spine did not bend, the media stayed unbent and the judiciary remained independent. Yet we have to be wary of the robotisation of our minds into a ‘yogic’ acceptance of one drill — majoritarianism June 25, 2015 01:35 am | Updated December 04, 2021 11:36 pm IST Gopalkrishna Gandhi But why did the yoga procedures of that day remind me of them? Tsar Nicholas had faced a revolt the very day he ascended the throne. He crushed it ruthlessly but also set up, reflexively, the largest and most insidious system of spies and informers Russia had known. He also developed another very particular fascination. This was for things martial, for watching and enjoying drills. “It was specially at large-scale military reviews,” says his biographer Riasanovsky, “that Nicholas I experienced rapture, almost ecstasy.” Nicholas I is said to have been a handsome man, attentive to physical fitness and to how he appeared, in terms of looks and attire, to others. Quite logically for him, the Tsar regularly, almost compulsively, arranged for parades by uniformed men standing in chessboard order, moving and marching in brassy orchestration. Tsar Nicholas came, in fact, to be called ‘drill-master’. The size of his empire grew with the shape of his army, though he suffered serious reverses, and economic stagnation. This did not trouble him, for he could get in the drills he saw, his ‘ecstasy’. A power ...

Indira Gandhi Born on November 19, 1917 in an illustrious family, Smt. Indira Gandhi was the only child of Nehru, who was also her mentor in the nationalist movement. Being academically inclined, she studied at Ecole Nouvelle, Bex (Switzerland), Ecole Internationale, Geneva, Pupils' Own School, Poona and Bombay, Badminton School, Bristol, Vishwa Bharati, Shantiniketan and Somerville College, Oxford. Smt. Indira Gandhi was actively involved in the freedom struggle.

She was imprisoned in September 1942, and worked in riot-affected areas of Delhi in 1947 under Gandhiji's guidance. She found recreation in whatever she did and equal relaxation in being close to nature, in different forms of art, in physical activities like hiking in the mountains, or even reading about an unfamiliar subject. Interested in a wide array of subjects, she viewed life as an integrated process, where activities and interests are different facets of the whole, not separated into compartments or labeled under different heads. Indira married Feroze, a family friend and lawyer, on March 26, 1942 and had two sons. Feroze Gandhi was the son of a Parsi liquor and provision merchant of Allahabad. Other accounts state that his father was an engineer with a company that required him to travel to foreign countries a great deal. The surname Gandhi is c...
