Apocalypse 1947

Apocalypse 1947 By: Khalid Chowdhry Pakistan is the only country to be created in the name of Islam. Due to the movement led by Muhammad Ali Jinnah and the Indian subcontinent?s struggle for independence, Pakistan was created in 1947 as an independent homeland for Indian Muslims. After the announcement of British exit from India, Muslims were anxious over the prospect of universal suffrage and majority rule. They would be overwhelmed by the Hindu majority. Inevitably, they successfully secured the division of India into two separate sovereign states ? India and Pakistan. Tracing the historical, social, and economic rationale for the creation of Pakistan, Apocalypse 1947 is the author?s personal account of his experience and recollection of the events leading to the partition of the Indian subcontinent into two separate countries and the following aftermath. Events unfold chronologically, written by an eyewitness to it all. Drawing heavily on scholarly contributions by authors writing on subjects relating to his story, Chowdhry chose writers with non-South Asian origination. He endeavors to dispel untruths by authors hired to malign Pakistan. This book strives for an accurate determination of responsibility in each case for actions by individuals and entities.
