End of India

Analysing the communal violence in Gujarat in 2002, the burning of Graham Staines and his children and his children, the anti-Sikh riots of 1984 and targeted killings by terrorists in different parts of the country, Khushwant Singh forces us to confront the extreme corruption of religion that has made us among the most brutal people on earth. With sections of the Indian ruling coalition openly supporting the divisive and retrograde agenda of Hindu fundamentalists, it is the very idea of India that is at stake. A brave and passionate book, this book is a wake-up call for every Indian citizen concerned about his or her own future, if not the nation's.
