Indian leader (6)
I believe the answer is:
gandhi
'indian leader' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for gandhi that I've seen before include "Indian man of peace" , "Indian political dynasty" , "Pacifist Indian leader" , "Indian leader, Indira, assassinated 1984" , "Leader of Indian independence movement" .)
