Jaswant Singh on Founder and Father of Pakistan ( Quaid-e-Azam ) Part2
|
Jaswant Singh, a well-renowned ex-Minister for Defence, Finance and External Affairs of India, who laboriously researched for the past 5 years on the said topic, has finally released a biography on the Founder and Father of Pakistan: "Jinnah: India-Partition-Independence". This is the first book written by an Indian politician on the life of Quaid-e-Azam ("the Great Leader"/"Supreme Leader") Muhammad Ali Jinnah. The purpose of the book was to objectively study the man behind the creation of Pakistan. Jaswant Singh was forced to conclude that the founding father of Pakistan was "a great man", "man of attractive personality", "self-made man" and hailed him as "The Great Leader". LK Advani, an ex-Prime Minister of India whilst visiting the mouslem of Jinnah in Karachi, was rich of praises for the Quaid and described him as a secular leader. Mahatma Gandhi himself hailed Quaid-e-Azam as "a great Indian" and was the sole spokesman of the South Asian Muslims of pre-Pakistan. Jinnah was Born on December 25, 1876 in Karachi, British India and died on September 11, 1948 in Karachi, Pakistan. Unlike Nehru and Gandhi, Jinnah was not born into wealth and Jinnah used to walk to work out of poverty, yet he relentlessly fought and through dedication carved out a place for himself: Few individuals significantly alter the course of history. Fewer still modify the map of the world. Hardly anyone can be credited with creating a nation-state. Muhammad Ali Jinnah did all three. - Stanley <b>...</b> |

India BJP expels Jaswant Singh for saying Quaid Azam Jinnah was A Great Leader
|
SHIMLA, India Indias opposition Hindu fundamentalists expelled senior figure Jaswant Singh Wednesday over his book praising Pakistans founding father Mohammed Ali Jinnah who is widely blamed in India for the 1947 partition. Singh is a founding member of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) which completely dissociated itself from the book Jinnah-India, Partition, Independence,and expelled him unceremoniously through a telephone call. The book portrays the Quaid-e-Azam (Great Leader as Jinnah is remembered in Pakistan) as a great personality and holds Indias first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru and the Congress party responsible for the partition of India. In it Singh says Jinnah has been demonized in India. In a television interview aired over the weekend, the 71-year-old party veteran, a former foreign minister and member of parliament, said he had chosen the controversial leader as his subject because Jinnah had an intricate, complex personality of great character, determination. Singh, a former Indian Army major who had voluntarily retired without pension to work for the BJP over the past 30 years, also rejected the popularly-held view that Jinnah was a Hindu basher and solely responsible for the dismemberment of undivided India. I dont think it was dismemberment. He wanted space for the Muslims, he told the CNN-IBN channel. Nehru believed in a highly centralized polity, Singh has been quoted as saying. Thats what he wanted India to be. Jinnah wanted a federal polity. BJP <b>...</b> |
