Citing previously undisclosed evidence, this book presents an alternative point of view about the Partition of Pakistan and India. The author reasons that it was not Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, but Mahatma Gandhi who first introduced religion into politics, driving the Hindus and Muslims irreconcilably apart and convincing Jinnah, who had long fought for Hindu-Muslim unity, of the impossibility of a united India.
