Items related to India Wins Freedom
One of the makers of modern India tells the story of the partition of India as never before, with intimate knowledge and feeling. India Wins Freedom has at last won its own freedom. The full text of this autobiographical narrative was confined, under seal, in the National Library, Calcutta, and in the National Archives, New Delhi, for thirty years. What we now have is the complete text, released in September 1988, by a court directive. Not only have all the words and phrases of the original been reproduced, the original tone and temper have been fully restored. The text now reveals that the controversy that has simmered for so long about the hitherto unpublished pages, was fully justified.

About the Author:
Maulana Sayyid Abul Kalam Ghulam Muhiyuddin Ahmed Azad (11 November 1888 – 22 February 1958) was an Indian scholar and the senior Muslim leader of the Indian National Congress during the Indian independence movement. Following India's independence, he became the first Minister of Education in the Indian government. He is commonly remembered as Maulana Azad; the word Maulana is an honorific meaning 'Our Master', and he had adopted Azad (Free) as his pen name. His contribution to establishing the education foundation in India is recognised by celebrating his birthday as "National Education Day" across India.

Book Description Soft cover. Condition: New. India Wins Freedom is an enlightened account of the partition from the author, Maulana Azad s perspective. It includes his personal experiences when India became independent, and his ideas on freedom and liberty. The book takes the form of an autobiographical narrative and goes over the happenings of the Indian Independence movement. The book traces the events that took place and ultimately led to the partition in a frank and profound manner. The book says that politics was responsible for the partition more than religion. It also states that India failed to maximise its potential when it gained independence. The book discusses political hypocrisy, and also touches upon contemporaries of the author s, like Nehru, Gandhi, and Subhash Chandra Bose, and highlights their mind-sets during that time. India Wins Freedom was published in 1988 by Orient BlackSwan in paperback. Key Features: When the book was first published, it was sealed for its controversial take on India s independence movement. On being released to the public, over 30 million copies of the book were sold all over the world. Seller Inventory # 134775
