Question

how tha Indra Gandhi support tha cause of women​

Answer 1

Answer:

There are very few notable women leaders who have made their mark in the global political arena and Indira Gandhi is a name to reckon with. On her 100th birthday, we remember Indira, not just as a tenacious leader but as a symbol for women empowerment in India and the world over. Elected four times as the Prime Minister of the country and becoming the world's longest serving woman Prime Minister from 1966 to 1984, Indira was most admired for her iron-fisted approach and bold governance style.

The legacy of Indira Gandhi is an unforgettable one. Especially in the early 20th century, when being assertive was regarded as unacceptably outrageous by society, she sought to set standards for other women leaders across the board to follow suit. Her success shows us the importance of taking advantage of your surroundings and not letting your gender define you. “Every position has advantages and disadvantages. I had an advantage because of the education my father gave me and the opportunities of meeting some great people. But in politics one has to work doubly hard to show one is not merely a daughter but is also a person in her own right”, Indira had said, acknowledging the realities of the environment she grew up in.
