Indira Gandhi governed India for almost 20 years until her own Sikh bodyguards assassinated her in 1984 as she walked through her garden. The pathway is now a memorial with the spot where she collapsed marked with clear glass.

Several rooms have been dedicated to her son Rajiv Gandhi who was assassinated in 1991. The library and living room have been kept as she left them - they are not open to the public but can be viewed through windows in the garden.
