"Princestan: How Nehru, Patel and Mountbatten Made India" by Sandeep Bamzai is a historical account that unveils a lesser-known chapter in India's journey to independence. The book sheds light on a clandestine plan orchestrated by a group of powerful princely states to create a third dominion called "Princestan" during the run-up to independence. This plan aimed to keep the 565 princely states separate from both India and Pakistan, retaining their paramountcy under British influence.
Key Highlights:
- **Vile Plan Unveiled**: The book reveals a vile plan devised by certain princely states, led by the Nawab of Bhopal, to remain outside the ambit of the two newly emerging nations, India and Pakistan, under British patronage.
- **Key Players**: The plan had the support of notable figures like Mohd. Ali Jinnah, Lord Wavell, and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. These influential individuals were complicit in the scheme to create instability in the newly independent nation.
- **Heroes of Independence**: "Princestan" narrates how Jawaharlal Nehru, Lord Mountbatten, and Sardar Patel actively worked to thwart the nefarious British plan and ensure the unity and stability of the newly independent India.
- **Untold Story**: The book uncovers this hitherto untold story of the behind-the-scenes battles and negotiations that took place between the leaders of princely states and the key figures in the Indian independence movement.
This historical account offers readers a fresh perspective on the challenges and obstacles faced by India's leaders in preserving the unity of the nation during a critical period in its history. It showcases the determination and resilience of those who played a pivotal role in shaping the future of India.
