Foundations of Misery - Blunders of the Nehruvian Era

Rate this book
The book focuses on the blunders of the Nehruvian era, many of which still affect and vitiate India’s present. It is hoped that once there is an enlightened understanding of the past, free from the pervasive fiction, India would be better able to tackle its present and future.

The book contains incidents, information and revelations that would shock readers and make them exclaim: “Oh God, was this so? I didn't know!” Not that the facts or revelations are new, only they are not commonly known.

The book covers, among many other things, the following:
1) History of Kashmir from the 6th century BCE to the times of Nehruvian Blunders on J&K.
2) History of Tibet-China relations since the 7th century CE, and how Nehru allowed erasure of Tibet as a nation.
3) Indo–Tibet/China Boundary History, 1962 India–China War, and Nehru’s Himalayan Misadventure.
4) Integration of Princely States; and how left to Nehru, Hyderabad would have been another Kashmir or Pakistan.
5) History of Sinhala and Tamils of Sri Lanka; and Nehru’s neglect of the problems of Srilankan Tamils.
6) Nehru: Foreign to Foreign Policy.
7) Nehru & Netaji Subhas Mystery.
8) Avoidable Internal Security Problems.
9) India’s Self-Inflicted Poverty thanks to Nehruvian Poverty-Perpetuating & Misery-Multiplying Socialism.
10) Mental & Cultural Slavery thanks to Nehruvian Ways.
11) Feudal Dynastic Democracy thanks to Nehru.
12) Summarising the "Invention".

This book is a must read for any history enthusiast, every indian needs to read this to know what has been hidden from us in the form of those history textbooks in school. This book can change our perspective in life if understood properly, how an oppurtinist can overshadow our good deed, and how we can safeguard ourselves from such people. Evey point (maybe repeated a few times) has been logically explained and all conclusions are unbiased and derived after genuine reasoning. The writer deserves a salute for his boldness.
