Many great people in India’s post-Independence history have gone into oblivion only because they were not part of the Nehruvian consensus or refused to adopt models of communism or socialism. These forgotten personalities were also proud of India’s rich history and dreamt of bringing back its lost glory. They believed in the integrity of India and devoted their life to it so that India could rise as leader in the comity of nations.Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee was an unheralded political personality of the 20th century. He was a great patriot who renounced his life for the betterment of society. His achievements in his short life span were remarkable. ‘Pledge for an Integrated India: Dr. Mookerjee in Throes of Jammu and Kashmir’ is a tribute to India’s unity and solidarity, and an answer to those who declared Dr. Mookerjee ‘communalist, fascist and obscurantist’. He opposed Nehru’s decisions relating to Jammu and Kashmir solely because they were contrary to India’s interest. He advocated that the Indian nation should have only One Flag, One Constitution, One Prime Minister and One President. This book reveals the failures of Jawaharlal Nehru who was responsible for the imbroglio in Jammu and Kashmir. At the same time, this book provides a meticulous and unbiased study of Dr. Mookerjee’s arguments, which have been conveniently sidelined over the years.
