Sushma Swaraj: ‘Lahore ki Beti’, My ‘Deedi’, & A Celeb in Pakistan
Friday, August 9, 2019 IST
When we met for the first time, both of us had lived most of part of our lives in different times and a world apart. She was in her late 40s and I was in my mid 20s. She was a politician and quite used to living in the glare of media eye. I was an activist and was, frankly, quite wary of politicians’ expedient approach to most problems of the world. She was calm, having time-tested acumen and penchant to find common grounds and readiness to give an inch in order to gain few inches in the longer run. I was restless, an unapologetic idealist, an ambitious young woman who wanted to change the world through adherence to her ideals.
