NEW DELHI (AP) -- Three weeks after her election as India's prime minister, Indira Gandhi's position is threatened by defections from her Congress party. Congress party members have bolted in two Indian states, leaving the party with legisla- tive majorities in only seven of 16 states. Some fear that the defections will reach the na- tional level and reduce or wipe out the party's 20-seat majority in Parliament. The cabinet Mrs. Gandhi fonmed last month after India's general elections could then fall on a parliamentary vote of no confidence. Although Mrs. Gandhi's Position Threatened By Defections From Her Party pears in danger, observers ex- pect the Congress party to re- tain power. All six opposition parties in Parliament would have to unite and be joined by at least 15 defectors from the Congress to put together a new parliamen- tary majority, and there ap- pears to be no conceivable prospect of this happening. After ruling India unchal- lenged since the country became independent 20 years ago, the Congress party has declinec both in appeal to the voters and party discipline. The party los' 82 parliamentary setas in the February elections and its nearly complete monopoly o! the state legislatures was bro Gandhi's personal position ap- ken. 1967 BISCAYNE 4 Dr. Sedan V-8 engine, two tone Butternut Yellow with Tuxedo SALE PRICE 1967 IMPALA Hardtop Coupe Tahoe turquoise metallic finish, wheel discs, white-| walls and radio.
