Jinnah: India, Partition, Independence

Jinnah: India-Partition-Independence is a book written by Jaswant Singh, a former Finance Minister of India and an External Affairs Minister, on Muhammad Ali Jinnah (the founder of Pakistan) and the politics associated with the Partition of India. The book was released on 17 August 2009 and soon became the subject of controversy, subsequently leading to Singh's expulsion from the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP). It contains controversial opinions of Singh, claiming that Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru's centralised policy was responsible for partition, and that Jinnah was portrayed as a 'demon' by India for the partition. The book launch ceremony was held at Teen Murti Bhavan in the presence of only a couple of BJP members.
