The Emergency lasted from 1975 to 1977. It was Independent India''s darkest hour. Over 1,50,000 people are said to have been arrested and kept in prison without trial for almost two years. The number of people killed in police firings or otherwise eliminated is unknown but could run into thousands. As many as eleven million are said to have been subjected to forcible family planning measures, including vasectomy. The heroes were many, says author Ashok Chakravarti. Mostly, they were unknown. The Struggle Within is the unputdownable account of that time from one of those who fought against the Emergency, and was part of the underground movement himself. Powerful, moving and revealing, this will count as one of the major accounts of that time
