"India Wins Freedom looks at the historic freedom struggle from the unique perspective of one of the most prominent faces of the Independence movement, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad. In this classic, narrated to his secretary, Humayun Kabir, between 1956 and 1958, Maulana Azad speaks of the momentous events between 1935 and 1948 that shaped the destiny of a new-born nation. Briefly touching upon his early life, his family, education, travels, indoctrination into revolutionary politics and his disillusionment with it, this volume goes on to discuss the evolving political discourse of that era. It brings alive the hopes and sorrows of nationalist leaders as they fought to realise the collective dreams of a deeply fractured polity. It also provides an inside view of the workings of the Indian National Congress during the early twentieth century and interesting insights into the Maulana's chequered relationship with Mohammad Ali Jinnah and Vallabhbhai Patel, as well as his disagreements with Gandhi and Nehru. Mindful of hurting the feelings of his contemporaries, the Maulana had directed certain selected portions of this book, containing incidents and reflections mainly of personal character, to be left out for a period of thirty years, which was released for publication by a court order in 1988. This edition is the complete text, with the original tone and temper fully restored. More than half a century later, Maulana Azad's forthright views expressed with honesty and courage and t...

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. I remember, many years back, when the complete version of Maulana Abul Kalam Azad’s book was released, it had aroused a lot of curiosity as there was new content which he had authorized for release only after 30 years. There is certainly material critical of other leaders (especially Sardar Patel towards the end of the book) though the treatment is fairly mature. The book is right on most aspects including the fact that partition was not progress towards peace. The main issue with the book though is that it has a “I know best” tone right through the entire book with blame laid on others –Patel, Jinnah, Nehru & Gandhiji. The book covers the period in the late 1930s and 40s leading up...
