    If it's not because of K. Kamaraj the founder and the president of the Indian National Congress, whose regarded as the best candidate to replace Nehru & later Lal Bahadur Shastri, humbly declined the Prime Ministerial post and was instrumental in making Shastri and Indira Gandhi as 2nd & 3rd Prime Minister if India respectively.

    It was CIA murdered Bhaba , fearing leaps and bounds progress in neuclear tech and INC was lapdog of then Soviet ... Bhaba died and it hit hard India , a very hard smash ... Some say USA supported Pakistan , well no, in the 1st decade of Independence of India , US urged India not to join a communist oppressor like Soviet , US wants India as a democracy , to join with US allied force and US even told India they ll give India a Neuclear Bomb as an asuarance to counter Pakistan and China... well then KGB totally grasped congress and inventually India's decision making body ... We even nationalised and closed our economy... It turnout a total failed 60 years and death of one of our top humanitarian scientist and several wars for just a wrong decision and hunger of authority of INC

    It was a great tragedy. There was a lot of speculation that it was a plot to kill Homi Babha. Great loss to India.

    Despite their shortcomings, they have done more for the nation in their leadership than the bigoted fools in their whole careers.

    A very tragic accident indeed. A scientist like Homi Babha the pioneer of the Nuclear Project, lost his life too soon. May his soul rest in peace.
