S7E4: The Sikkim puzzle | India United 4 - a podcast by Ep.Log Media

Jawaharlal Nehru was firmly against hereditary monarchs. But he made an exception in the case of Sikkim.
He let Sikkim’s King stay on, until after his death. His daughter Indira Gandhi believed it was an indirect concession to China.
But there were movements within Sikkim for democracy and the end of landlordism. Political dynamics slowly began to change during the 1960s and Indira Gandhi finally decided to get R&AW officials to plot the ouster of the Simkimese king.
I look at the history of India-Sikkim relations in this fourth episode of India United.
