	Indira feared army coup: Manekshaw -DAWN - International; April 5, 2003
		NEW DELHI, April 4: India’s most decorated former army chief Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw has repeated his assertion that the prime minister of his day, the late Indira Gandhi, had feared he would stage a military coup against her in the aftermath of the 1971 war with Pakistan, newspaper reports said on Friday.
		“When I walked into the prime minister’s chamber in Parliament House, Mrs Gandhi was looking forlorn and directly asked me whether I was trying to stage a coup to topple her,” he said in a direct narration in the film, titled ‘In war and Peace — The Life of Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw’.
		They said Mr Manekshaw, in his just released biographical film, recounts that soon after the victory over Pakistan, he was mobbed by admirers all over the country and often asked when he was going to take over the reins of power in India.

	Samuel P. Huntington - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Samuel Phillips Huntington (born April 18, 1927) is a political scientist known for his analysis of the relationship between the military and the civil government, his investigation of coup d'etats, and his thesis that the central political actors of the 21st century will be civilizations rather than nation-states.
		Huntington came to prominence as a scholar in the 1960s with the publication of Political Order in Changing Societies, a work which challenged the conventional view of modernization theorists that economic and social progress would bring about stable democracies in recently decolonized countries.
		Huntington is concerned that, as a result of economic development, political mobilization will increase faster than the appropriate institutions can arise, thus leading to instability.
