This book is an extremely topical and hard-hitting account of the dangerous realities that threaten the very survival of the Hindu nation. Radha Rajan draws on the historical lessons of the dismemberment of the Soviet Union to interpret-citing documents in the public domain-the steady dismemberment of our own nation during the freedom struggle and right down to today, all with the active collaboration of the Indian political and intellectual elite of the time. The avowed objective remains the erasure of the Hindu nation and, quoting chapter and verse, she establishes Gandhi as directly responsible for the Partition of 1947. She shows how his corrosive legacy, suicidal for Hindus, still perverts our polity, and she concludes her analysis with a warning and a hope.
