I would have liked to write about why a pre Independence era Sindhi politician caused so much bad blood in the Bharatiya Janata Party but unfortunately I am nou00a0historian.

Yet, I feel that the real issue, which should have been the focus of debate, has been drowned among hullabaloo over Jaswant Singh hailing Muhammad Ali Jinnah. You don't need to be a political observer to understand that the action against Major sahab has its roots beyond the scope of the book u2013 Jinnah India-Partition and Independence.
