That speech a day before death
The country’s fiery woman, whose voice alone made the enemies terrified of even looking at India. Her sudden death was a big shock to the country. It is said that Indira Gandhi had already sensed her death. That is why a day before her death, Indira Gandhi changed her speech and said something in front of the public, which surprised everyone. Even the time before her death, Indira Gandhi was awake, at that time her daughter-in-law Sonia was with her. Indira said – “I am here today, tomorrow I may not be here… when I die, every drop of my blood will be used to strengthen India”. This line spoken by Indira struck like a bolt of lightning. Her mentioning of her death in the speech seemed as if she was telling the people that this was her last meeting.
I told Sonia- don’t cry if something happens.
Experts say that suddenly her tone of speaking had changed and her words were pointing towards some possible incident. Experts also say that she had told her family members not to cry if something happened to her. On 31st October, Indira Gandhi’s security guard shot her, due to which she died, but a day before her death, Indira was very restless. She could not sleep the whole night. That night when her daughter-in-law Sonia got up at midnight to take her medicine, her mother-in-law came with her. Indira told Sonia not to worry, I am with you. That night Indira stayed awake till late or you can say she could not sleep.
