FROM PARIS, BY A PARSI - HOW THE INDIAN FLAG LANDED ON OUR SOIL?

Last week, India celebrated her 61st Independence Day. It brought back memories afresh of our struggle for independence as television channels continued to beam images and clippings of the Father of our Nation – Mahatma Gandhi, the Quit India Movement and the great men and women who sacrificed their lives to win India back her freedom.
Today in yet another series of articles, we have Rasheid Taleyarkhan bringing alive one such important woman who was lost somewhere in the pages of history – yes it’s none other than Madam Bhikaji Cama.
