Review: Ask any genuine student of Physics and he/she would blindly recommend H. C. Verma’s Concept of Physics as the book to understand the concepts of high school physics and ultimately clear the JEE exams. Ask someone who loves Physics and he/she will tell you the beauty and applications of H. C. Verma’s book in driving home the concepts of Physics is far beyond just clearing JEE.
When it comes to the concept of Muslim politics, our understandings and resources have been shockingly wrong, corrupted, censored and misleading. Not anymore. For decades the foolishness and lack of clarity amongst our politicians, decision-makers, and our society as a whole have made problems arising due to Muslim politics unnecessarily complicated, bloody and messy. The reason being they lacked clarity in “Concepts of Muslim politics”. Here comes a brilliant book by Sanjay Dixit: “Unbreaking India: Decisions on Article 370 and the CAA”. If you want clarity into the Concepts of Muslim politics particularly in the Indian subcontinent with examples of problems and solutions, this is the book I will recommend in an instant. Again like H. C. Verma’s book, the importance of this book goes far beyond just understanding article 370 and CAA. It will empower you with the clarity to diagnose problems and come up with your own solutions to these problems, particularly in the context of Muslim politics.

About

This is a unique book of its kind where you can easily put it in multiple categories such as history, law, politics, current affairs, etc. The main aim of the book is to explain the importance of nullification of Article 370 and enactment of CAA in the interests of Bharaitya civilization. A lot of fuss, noise, drama, and even engineered riots were created against these two major decisions. Obviously, these two decisions were hotly contested debates not only within India but outside India as well. But there was hardly any depth, sincerity, scholarship in most of those debates, the majority of whom were politically, ideologically motivated. This book by Sanjay Dixit ends the debate once in for all. That’s why it’s hard to put this book in one category because to completely settle a debate, you need a comprehensive, objective analysis from multiple angles, details, perspectives. Those of you who were vehemently opposing nullification of Article 370 and CAA, even you will be convinced against your beliefs provided you have the best interests of Bharat in your hearts, and you’re capable of reading, comprehension and logical thinking. Of course, there will still be those not belonging to either of these two categories. For such people: you, my dear friends have to argue harder than you have ever before. Even then, I don’t see any other way but to lie your way out of it or to run away from a civil, open debate as usual.

For whom?

This book is extremely important for people in positions of power such as IAS, IFS, MPs, MLAs, journalists, etc. Of course, Prime Minister, Cabinet Ministers and people from RAW, IB, security agencies should be having such clarity and some more while making policies for our country. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case in the past, but things are changing for the better now.
Secondly, the most important audience for this book should be any Bharatiya who cares one bit for Bharatiya civilization. This book is especially important for the so-called “secular-liberal” class. This “secular-liberal” class has already cost the partition and multi-generational trauma to millions of people of the greater Bharatvarsha (including present-day Pakistan, Bangladesh).
It’s also very important for Muslims to read this book. As explained in this book, the whole politics of Muslims is limited to basic, uncompromising tenets of Islamic sects which itself is unquestionably decided by the authoritarian figures within those sects. In simple words, individual aspirations, intelligence, entrepreneurship, desires, thoughts are shunned down (concept of Taqlid explained in the book) and that ultimately harms the Muslim populace in the long run. The example is Pakistan.
As for Hindus/Sikhs, again the example is Pakistan (& Bangladesh). You have lost Sindh, Western Punjab, Eastern Bengal, Sharda Shakti Peeth, Chitral, Dhakeshwari Mandir, Lahore, Kartarpur Sahib, Karachi, Rawalpindi, Multan (Mulsthan), Peshawar (Purushpur), Chittagong, Amarkot, etc. Millions of your ancestors were butchered, women/children raped, paraded naked in the streets of Lahore and other Pakistani cities. The brave-unfortunate Hindus/Sikhs of Pakistan and Bangladesh are suffering trauma, persecutions on a daily basis even today. Not to forget the unfathomable, holocaust faced particularly by Bengali Hindus in 1971 and then by Hindu Kashmiri Pandits in 1989-1990, who by the way were also secular liberals in a true sense. The ideology, the politics, the kind of people and institutions that has led to these traumas I described are still present and flourishing in our Rashtra. You have to be unapologetic, bluntly truthful to these narratives.

A few clarities I developed reading this book

  • Clarity 1: Major schools of Islamic thoughts of the subcontinent (including the Sufis) are fundamentally and perpetually in conflict with civilizational Rashtra i.e. Bharat
    Different schools of Islam such as the Deobandis, the Barelvis, the Ahmadiyas, etc. have many differences amongst themselves. But one thing they are absolutely clear on is their end goal of the dominance of Islam in the subcontinent. And they have evolved a well-oiled, tried and tested modulus operandi to establish this dominance and gain the most out of a conflict even though they are in the minority. In fact, I would go on to say that this strategy of zero-sum game played by the Asraf-Mulla-Maulana class (AMM class, a term coined by the author) has landed them at high tables, even in today’s Bharat. And this zero-sum game attitude lands them with significantly disproportionate entitlement from the state, judiciary, media, corporates, movies, marketing, academia at the cost of non-Muslims especially the Hindus.
  • Clarity 2: Hindus are confused
    The author has shown this with numerous examples from Khilafat to Direct Action day to Islamic raids on Kashmir to Nehru’s (if you consider him Hindu) blunders on Kashmir. The examples are so many and the pattern so repetitive that frankly, it makes non-Muslims look like a stupid delusional lot. We live in Kaliyug. We should not mind being coward, brutal, betraying, ugly, geniuses rather than trusting, brave, beautiful, forgiving, idiots especially when it comes to the protection of our civilisational nation. Needless to say, non-Muslims especially Hindus have been a confused lot falling in the second category most of the times. You will understand this clearly when you’ll read Ch-23 Raid on the Valley.
  • Clarity 3: Muslim appeasement politics leads to disasters for non-Muslims without any exceptions
    Muslim appeasement politics in the subcontinent has boiled down to accept and compromise with whims-wishes of AMM class, however absurd and dangerous they might be. If you don’t compromise, they employ their tried tested modulus operandi as they did during Khilafat, Direct Action day or anti-CAA riots.
    This appeasement politics also brings disaster for the majority of the Muslims in the long run (not belonging to AMM class) as their leadership is exclusively at the hands of an elite AMM class (due to Taqlid) who frankly care only about Sharia, Islam, subverting-converting-eliminating Kafirs over any kind of real developmental issues.
    As for non-Muslims, as mentioned before this appeasement politics has already cost you Sindh, Punjab, Bengal, etc. Millions of people have already died, millions are living in a state of fear, and as second class citizens, women are converted-raped. All this because of the foolish appeasement politics we have been playing especially since the Khilafat movement exactly a century ago. It has been 100 years. At least wake up now.

I have listed some significant clarities I developed after reading this book. This book is an analytical book of history diving into the uncensored theology of Sufis, repeated mistakes of Hindus, history of Islamisation of Kashmir, the emergence of & constitutionality of Art 370, the necessity of CAA, etc. But the most important aspect is this history has a bearing on our present and our future. Depends on whether we learn from it or not. With the nullification of Article 370 and enactment of CAA, we are moving in the right direction. It is up to you, me and anyone who cares about Bharat that this process of Unbreaking India shouldn’t stop because Breaking India forces aren’t stopping anytime soon.
