    Answer to puzzle #4728

    Person: Gulzarilal Nanda

    Mr. Nanda became prime minister twice once after the death of Mr. Nehru and once after death of Mr. Lal Bahadur Shastri both times the nation was recovering from war - the war with China. Even after having been a Prime Minister, he served as a minister in both the cabinet of Mr. Lal Bahadur Shastri and Mrs. Indira Gandhi. Both his terms lasted 13 days.

    Clues:
    Image1: Mr. Shastri, Mrs. Indira Gandhi, Mr. Nehru. Mr Nanda became prime minister twice between 1964 to 1966.

    Image2:13 indicating 13 days of his term.

    Image3: Mr. Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The only other prime minister who had lasted a term of 13 days.

    Image4a, Image4b: Mr. Nanda was a home minister in Mrs. Indira Gandhi's cabinet. In 1966, the hindu organization organized an agitation for having a ban on cow slaughter. There were some chaos and destruction of public property. Mr. Nanda resigned on moral grounds of not being able to maintain Law and Order.

    Image 5: Mr. Nanda was awarded Bharat Ratna in 1997. Some members of Congress party were unhappy with the decision as Mr. Nanda had opposed the imposition of emergency.

    Mr. Nanda passed away in 1998 at the age of 99. Mr. Nanda was a true follower of Gandhiji. One day his daughter (she was a child then) drew some sketch and went to show it to her father. Mr. Nanda appreciated the art but scolded her as she had done the sketch on his official stationery and he objected to using public stationery for personal drawing.
