(26 Jun 1981) Background to Story: In June, Mrs Gandhi's Congress (I)Party achieved sweeping victories in several by-elections - the first major test since her return to power at the beginning of last year. One of the winning candidates was her eldest son, Rajiv, who may now be poised to follow in the footsteps of his brother Sanjay, who had been his mother's closest adviser and the most powerful man in India before his death in an air crash a year ago. This report gives the background to the emergence of this new rising star on the Indian political horizon.
