Book Description
The future of every character, every person during those 15 days was different...very different...! in thinking, in working style, in behaviour, and in everything...! Those fifteen days taught us alot... We saw Nehru ready to unfurl the Union Jack in India at the behest of Mountbatten. On the same day and at the same time when Gandhiji was telling the refugees in Lahore, if Lahore is falling to death, you should face death with a smile, the chief of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh—Guruji was giving the mantra of ‘getting inspiration from King Dahir, unite and live with courage’ just 800 miles away from Gandhiji, at Hyderabad (Sindh). At a time when Congress president’s wife Sucheta Kripalani was telling Sindhi women in Karachi that ‘Muslim goons tease you because of your make-up and low-cut blouses’, Mavashi Kelkar of Rashtra Sevika Samiti, was trying to make Hindu women empowered and strong while becoming cultured, at Karachi. While the Hindu workers of the Congress were trying to flee from Punjab and Sindh to India, the RSS Swayamsevaks were risking their lives to protect the Hindus and Sikhs and bring them safely to India. This book describes the happenings in 15 days, before India got the Independence, in an interesting manner.
