Putting Gandhi center stage on the Hindu-Muslim conflict spanning from the Khilafat Movement (1919) to Partition (1946-1947), Manash Firaq Bhattacharjee critically engages with the ideas of Mohamad Ali, Iqbal, the Arya Samaj, Ambedkar, Vivekananda, Aurobindo and Savarkar. The tragic repercussions of Jinnah’s declaration of ‘Direct Action Day’ on 16th August 1946 leads Manash to ask probing questions on the persistent malady in our political history: How does communal politics descend into genocide? What is the psychology of communal violence? Attentively reading the exceptional witness accounts of Pyarelal, Nirmal Kumar Bose and Manu Gandhi.
