Miss Conduct

Jeanne de Valois - Saint - Rémy

50 min 10 sec

We were asked by our handful of fans “are you only going to talk about Indian women” And to that we say “well… we were going to, but also we need to keep the content flowing.” So here is a French woman instead, all the way from the late 1700s. Jeanne forged the signature of Queen Marie Antoinette and successfully stole a diamond necklace, worth about 15 million today. When she got caught, she decided to talk smack about the Queen instead. A jolly good time was had by all, except for the royal family. They were beheaded a bit later, for other reasons.

Indira Gandhi

1 hr 1 min 53 sec

GUEST ON BOARD: We are joined by Priya Mirza, who teaches political science at Zakir Husain Delhi College. Priya is the host of The Longest Constitution podcast, which looks at how the vision of the Constitution and how it affects everyday life On 12th June 1975, 4 years after the 1971 Indian general elections, incumbent Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was found guilty by the Allahabad High Court of electoral malpractices. The complaint against her was filed by Raj Narain, her opposing candidate in the constituency of Rae Baraeli. The Court convicted her of election fraud, stripped her of her parliamentary seat, unseated her as the Prime Minister, and barred her from holding office for another 6 years. And how did Mrs. Gandhi respond By locking down the entire country under an “Emergency” for over 2 years. Mrs. Gandhi also followed this up by passing the 39th Amendment to the Constitution, which barred any court in India from challenging the election of any person to Lok Sabha holding the office of Prime Minister. This Amendment was struck down later by the Supreme Court for trying to amend the Basic Structure of the Constitution. So Mrs. Gandhi was basically told a resounding “NO” at least twice by Indian courts.
