About this listen

1947 में भारत का विभाजन बीसवीं सदी की सबसे दुखांत घटना थी, जिसके ज़ख्म अभी तक नहीं भरे। इसके कारण चार पीढियों की मानसिकता आहत हुई। क्यों हुआ यह बंटवारा? कौन इसके लिए उत्तरदायी थे- जिन्ना, कांग्रेस पार्टी अथवा अंग्रेज? इस पुस्तक के लेखक जसवंत सिंह ने इसका उत्तर खोजने की कोशिश की है- संभवत कोई निश्चित उत्तर हो नहीं सकता, फिर भी अपनी ओर से पूरी ईमानदारी से खोज की हे, क्योंकि जिन्ना जो किसी समय हिन्दू मुस्लिम एकता के पैरोकार थे, कैसे भारत में मुसलमानों के एकमात्र प्रवक्ता बने और अंतत: पाकिस्तान के निर्माता और फिर कायदे-आज़म। इस परिवर्तन की प्रक्रिया कैसे हुई? 'मुस्लिम एक अलग राष्ट्र है' यह प्रश्न कब और कैसे उभरा और किस तरह भारत के विभाजन में इसकी परिणति हुई। पाकिस्तान को यह विभाजन कितना भारी पड़ा? बंगलादेश क्यों बना और आज़ पाकिस्तान की स्थिति क्या है? इन सब ज्वलन्त प्रश्नों की पड़ताल इस पुस्तक का विषय है। लेखक का विश्वास है कि दक्षिण एशिया में स्थायी शांति तभी होगी, जब इस प्रश्न पर गंभीरता से विचार किया जाए कि यह सब क्यों हुआ? अब तक किसी भारतीय या पाकिस्तानी राजनीतिज्ञ अथवा सांसद ने इस प्रश्न का विश्लेषण करते हुए जिन्ना की जीवनी नहीं लिखी। यह पुस्तक इस दिशा में सापेक्ष और ईमानदाराना प्रयत्न है।

excellent articulation of a complex topic

Author and narrator have done an excellent job of bringing out chronological unfolding of events, machinations of the British, frailties and personal choices and aspirations of the key personalities who were involved or rather who orchestrated the partition of India to gain in their political careers and affecting millions of the countrymen women children. This book alongwith Dominique Lapierre's Freedom at Midnight must be made essential part of history learning curriculum at middle school level across India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. though a long book but it maintains pace, interest, and language that were necessary to correctly articulate for easy understanding of the masses.

Axis is Jinnah, periphery is 1905-1947

Authentic, balanced, interesting garland of historical development of Pakistan. Author is more over unbiased towards the partition story. Maintained balance with all personalities, however Nehru looks immature according to the author.

A good read.

A good read for those who are interested in history.
Few chapters/facts - specially those highlighting 'timeline' of partition should get place in highschool study.

good but not enough

The author correctly blames the british for being the force behind the partition.
The author gives a very light and sympathetic treatment to jinnah. jinnah was an opportunistic power hungry egoistic maniac who destroyed people, families and entire regions.
But it would have been great if the author had pondered over the effects of a undivided India.
With perhaps over 25% 'peace loving' population share, would India have turned into Lebanon?
I am not sure, but worth wondering.
