Krishna Hutheesing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Krishna Nehru Hutheesing (1907-1967) was the youngest sister of Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India and Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit, one of the most influential women in Indian politics. Mrs. Hutheesing, who was married to Gunottam (Raja) Hutheesing, was well known in India's elite social circles and was a household name in India throughout most of the 20th century. She and her husband fought for India's independence and spent a great deal of time in jail while raising their two young sons, Harsha and Ajit. Mrs. Hutheesing documented her life as well as the lives of her brother Nehru and her niece, Indira Gandhi, in a series of well regarded books that intertwine history with personal anecdotes including We Nehrus, With No Regrets, Nehru's Letters to His Sister and Dear to Behold.
