  How did a nation of over 600 million people bow down to the whims and fancies of a Prime Minister`s pampered son?

Ringside to these developments was Vinod Mehta, perhaps the best-known name in Indian journalism. Mehta distils his observations and insights into this appraisal of the Sanjay Gandhi phenomenon, and its impact on the national scene. The story starts at the Nehru family home, and Feroze Gandhi`s relationship with the Nehrus, particularly Kamala and Indira. Key to understanding their son`s volatile personality are the complexes and insecurities that plagued the Indira-Feroze marriage.

In his compelling, honest style, Vinod M ehta sifts facts from rumours, and gets to the core of Sanjay`s dramatic emergence after the declaration of Emergency. His capturing of the Youth Congress, the excesses of the sterilization campaign (which he thought, rightly, would ensure his place in history), and his obsession with cars, which led to the establishment of the Maruti factory, are all brought out in telling detail, as is the media`s role in building the Cult of Sanjay.

Containing a new introduction by the author, The Sanjay Story allows readers to look with the benefit of hindsight at the rise and fall of one of independent India`s most controversial figures.What emerges is not only an understanding of Sanjay and his times, but also of India`s current political scenario. Flint published more than three decades ago, this still remains the only biography of one of India`s most controversial political figures and hence a crucial historical document of an era which changed Indian politics forever.
