This book was released on 2005 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phase being after the Quit India movement was the last in the series of his civil disobedience movements that he launched. Historians and contemporary commentators interpret his change in strategy in not resorting to mass movements, as a very significant change in dealing with the tangled web of India s freedom struggle. He plunged into direct negotiations with Jinnah (Sept. 1944) even as he (the Mahatma) was not even a member of the Congress Party. While this was not a facade, he knew that he carried the Congress and a large section of the Indian political spectrum with him. These bilateral negotiations were a prelude to the subsequent talks between the antagonists (the Congress and the Muslim League), arranged through the initiative and intervention of the British Government. These were the Simla Conference (1945), the Cabinet Mission s efforts (1946) and finally the discussions on the Mountbatten Plan. Almost simultaneous to these moves occurred the horrendous communal riots between the Hindus and the Muslims and the Muslims and the Sikhs during which the Mahatma s moral shield demonstrated what a one-man s ethical verities could do to confront and contain the overflow of inhuman violence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indian freedom movement since 1920s showed awareness of the need of special measures to ensure due representation to religious minorities and Scheduled Castes and Tribes (SC & ST) in legislatures. In keeping with this consociational-affirmative model, the framers of the Constitution provided for population based quota of seats for minorities and SC& ST under joint electorate, in August 1947. However, lingering apprehensions about such provisions for religious minorities, caused by the Partition led to their scrapping in May 1949. While dispensing with the special provision for minorities, Nehru and Patel, among others, gave firm assurance to them, especially to Muslims, that even without Constitutional safeguard the majority community would not only be fair but generous of them, ensuring their due representation in legislatures.

Download or read book The Shadow of the Great Game written by Narendra Singh Sarila and published by Constable. This book was released on 2017-08-10 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The untold story of India's Partition. The partition of India in 1947 was the only way to contain intractable religious differences as the subcontinent moved towards independence - or so the story goes. But this dramatic new history reveals previously overlooked links between British strategic interests - in the oil wells of the Middle East and maintaining access to its Indian Ocean territories - and partition. Narendra Singh Sarela reveals here how hte Great Gane against the Soviet Union cast a long shadow. The top-secret documentary evidence unearthed by the author sheds new light on several prominent figures, including Gandhi, Jinnah, Mountbatten, Churchill, Attlee, Wavell and Nerhu. This radical reassessment of one of the key events in British colonial history is important in itself, but its claim that many of the roots of Islamic terrorism sweeping the world today lie in the partition of India has much wider implications.
