In the 1980s, a controversial allegation surfaced accusing the then-Indian Prime Minister, Morarji Desai, of being a CIA mole. This claim originated from a book by Seymour Hersh, an American investigative journalist, titled The Price of Power: Kissinger in the Nixon White House.
Hersh alleged that Desai received payments from the CIA in exchange for information during his tenure as India's finance minister in the 1960s.The accusation against Morarji Desai aused a political uproar in India, leading to significant media coverage and intense debates in political circles. Desai, who served as Prime Minister from 1977 to 1979, vehemently denied the allegations, calling them baseless and defamatory.
Morarji Desai responded to the allegations by filing a defamation lawsuit against Seymour Hersh in a U.S. court. The lawsuit aimed to clear his name and challenge the credibility of the claims made in the book. The legal battle highlighted the complexities of international defamation cases and the difficulties in proving or disproving such serious accusations.
